Is the Muff March such a cunning stunt? | Naomi McAuliffe

By focusing on activism against pornography British designer vaginas gets the headlines, but it hides the real problems

So this year, women have emerged as whores and Fannies. You know, I do not think we send the right message. While I fully agree with the principles behind these steps, what appears to be reducing women to the same kind of stereotypes that we are fighting against, that we are defined by our vagina. We seem to have yielded much in a race to make headlines, trends in Twitter, to get our banners and slideshows log ingenious.

this weekend March Muff was the real subject of genital cosmetic surgery. Some women feel so ashamed of his nether regions, they are willing to take a knife to him. Lady Gardens are not only hedged, which are invasive with re-landscaping. Labiaplasty (cut pieces of the mouth), the tightening of the vagina and hymen reconstruction are increasing. And while women, especially, you consent to these procedures, the context in which they are doing is wrong. Context of lady bits of shame. Women and girls have to live with accusations of fishy smell, the smell in our times, have vaginas that are too loose, with children who are not clean enough, the growth of hair too (as if it is an option), or decorate a minge like a Christmas tree with some horrible vajazzle. Respond to these accusations with razors, wax and a surgeon with a scalpel.

It was much more active against "designer vaginas" in the United States, where the phenomenon was more common for longer. But there is one interesting difference in approach. Activism is US much more concerned about the risk of such procedures tested, unregulated, and unnecessary for the health of women. March in London has become undeniably and inevitably Muff porn. This certainly helps you get press coverage for a couple of days and to obtain the commentators of the race. But it is also far removed from those women who do not believe that all their personal decisions about their bodies are based porn, that Bush is the cup of treason. Or probably not want the subject of women's rights sleeve centered

make progress on the risks hidden porn real health of the operation - an experimental procedure performed at the request of the surgeons are not trained to do - and, more broadly, the "cures" for healing sexual problems are not sold for parts of fluff in newspapers and magazines immoral.

• As Dr. Petra Boynton, sex researcher and educator, said: "The purpose of the Muff March in porn, I believe, by restricting pornography Everything has probably had an impact on how we view our bodies is not me. 'T think we have just seen as the main factor for women to genital surgery, or remove their pubic hair. In fact, I would say that the media play a more important role to play here, but is not responsible. "
• not get me wrong, I'm a big fan runs. Fortunately, in my experience, men agree with Louis de Bernières: there is nothing better than "the burrow and disappear into a good headline heavy, honest." But I do not see how this protest addressed to the real problems of risk health of this surgery and other medicines charlatan who is praised in the press and the men women of their arbitrarily defined by the "sexual dysfunction".

not link to the whole "Selling penis enlargement! Viagra "email currently hitting my spam folder, or the medicalization of sexuality in general. It draws a parallel with female genital mutilation, which is monumentally insensitive to women and girls living with the world. These are the women who did not want to wear a flashy Merkin in central London.

is remarkable that all women have to do to make a political statement, it seems, do not shave. So much is being done to make us ashamed of our beavers cloying to a complete sleeve is considered "courageous", "courageous" and "Don King in a leglock."

March 1 organizing with women parading as Quimsa and condemning pornography is, ironically, sexy for the media - as evidenced by the large number of photographers in March, Saturday. But being in favor of the round does not mean they feel the need to push my grumpy on her face.
Its great that people are out of their laptops and do something to change the world. But that must be followed by a discussion of logical and sensible questions: please the media to get a picture of a bunch of stuff is not enough
