does anyone else out there have labia which protude out? i'm quite self conscious about it, especially each time i'm with someone new. its been that way since my early teens. also are there any tips for feeling more sexy and less worried with a vagina like this??

You seem very stressed out. I hate that feeling myself.

Forget this subject entirely. It really is not an issue. In fact I did a quick little research and found out that a lot of us prefer it. I personally don't care one way or another.

most men wouldn't know a protruding labia from a normal one..don't sweat it

I'm not a guy, but from what I've seen and heard from my male friends, it's not really a big deal to most guys. Personally, I think you should embrace your labia, and appreciate your body. There are many men out there that like larger/protruding labia. In fact, I have known some that preferred it. I had a friend tell me once that he didn't like women with short inner labia, because their vaginas looked like a young girls and not a womans; and that it was more womanly when a woman had larger inner labia. I have even heard it associated with the look of a flower as well. I wouldn't stress it at all if I were in your shoes, but I know that is asking a lot because it clearly worries you. I would focus on important it is that you feel comfortable with your body. Feeling uncomfortable about your body when you're having sex can lead to a whole bunch of other problems that you shouldn't have to deal with (you can't enjoy sex at it's fullest if your too busy wondering if he thinks your labia are too big, when the truth is that he probably doesn't notice or care.) If it bothers you that much, or they are so big that they are physically painful for you during sex, then perhaps you might want to consider a corrective surgery. Labiaplasty is quite common nowadays.

It's very common. I don't think you should feel any more self concious about it than having a different hair color than someone else.

I do. And guess what, my husband loves it. He actually told me it turns him on to see it and I used to be very self-conscious too!

You're one of the lucky ones !!

If you won the lottery you would be happy wouldn't you ?

So why are you not happy with your lovely vulva ?

I have extremely large lips and every person that Ive been with loves them !!!

Most men are totally oblivious to things like this.

They usually are worried if their penises will be laughed at.

If this is something you think bothers you physically, meaning you can see it through your underwear, bathing suits, tight pants, etc., there is a surgery called labioplasty that can be done. (I've seen it on the show Dr. 90210 - I'd never even heard of such a thing before.)

Here's a link with information. Good luck.
