Navigating the conversation about anatomical terms with our children can be a bit tricky. In a recent episode of Madge the Vag, our quirky host tackles the often uncomfortable topic of using proper names for body parts—specifically, the vagina and vulva. Instead of relying on terms like “front bum,” Madge encourages parents to embrace the correct terminology with confidence.
It’s not just about getting the words right; using proper names has real benefits. Pediatrician Dr. Jamie Rivers points out that teaching kids the right terms helps them articulate any health concerns they may encounter. So go ahead—don’t shy away from saying “vagina,” “vulva,” and “labia” with pride!
Madge the Vag is on a mission to break down barriers around women’s health topics, even if her style feels straight out of the 1950s. From discussions on body hair to yeast infections and relationships, she brings a fresh perspective that resonates with today’s moms. By addressing taboo subjects, she creates a space where women can feel empowered to share their experiences.
