Seriously, is there anything that London doesn’t have?

We know that London is known for its rich culture, its variety of museums and a plethora of galleries. In fact according to CNN Travel not only does London have the most number of museums in the world, but Londoners also have the highest percentage (53.6) of people attending their museums and galleries. So it should come as no surprise to anyone that London has the first (and maybe only) museum dedicated to celebrating the vag, muff, vajayjay, beaver, love button, red wagon, pink bearded clam, vulvarine or whatever you like to call it, and why not?

Iceland has a museum dedicated to the penis… you know…to give you something else to do once you bore of those spectacular Northern Lights.

Located in Camden’s Stables Market, upon entering I was greeted by a colourful art display of a giant red glitter tampon flanked by two giant menstrual cups. The motivation (aside from Iceland’s, anything boys can do, girls can do better) came a few years back as a pop-up museum. Then in 2019 thanks to a pubic, I mean public fundraising drive, they opened their permanent location in the trendy edgy neighborhood that Amy Winehouse once called home. The current exhibit called “Muff Busters: Vagina Myths and How to Fight Them”, pretty much “discharged” any misconceptions about that magical “cave of wonder” that half the world possesses.

A few tidbits about the Vajayjay I would like to pass on.

This might come as a surprise to some of the men out there, and none of the women, that in a recent British survey over 50% surveyed could not identify or identify the function of the vagina/labia and clitoris. Hmm, I wonder if this is why the Brits do not have a worldwide reputation for being rockstars in bed?

Below, a display of items one should never use on, or near your privates. Have to say that Virginity Soap at the bottom left has caught my attention.

And if you don’t know…pubic hair is there to protect your nether regions from bacteria. This was illustrated with a poster of pubic hair styling thru the decades. Wonder if the low maintenance untamed bush of the 70’s made for healthier women then today’s “barely there” generation?

Loved what the Evening Standard had to say about The Vagina Museum;

“It's not an ovary-action to say this new project is correcting thousands of years of schlong-related wrongs”

Throughout the museum, there are books, posters, buttons and an assortment of vagina inspired gifts for when you don’t know what to get that hard to shop for person on your list. Weirdly there were no sex toys, which I thought would have been a natural therefore I took the time to drop that little suggestion right in their suggestion box.

Also personally, I would have liked to have read about the pros and cons of vaginal steaming, Gwyneth swears by it. So speaking about Ms. Paltrow, surprisingly I did not see her new candle with the alluring fragrance of her vagina. Literally called This Smells Like My Vagina, and it retails for £58. Maybe the demand is too great for all those who want their living rooms, bedrooms or kitchens smelling like Gwyneth Paltrow’s vagina, as I have read that not only have the candles sold out, but her company Goop is now worth a 1/4 of a billion dollars. That is the power of the vagina.

I learned a lot on my visit to The Vagina Museum and all you London men, I would highly suggest do your girlfriends and wives a solid and “go down” and learn a thing or two.

Having absorbed quite a bit from diving into this muff inspired blog, it did leave me wondering this. At £58 for Gwythen’s vagina smelling candle, is it just me or did the poor dear underestimated the value of her vagina?
