Η Βίβλος του Κόλπου: Αιδοίο και Κόλπος: Διαχωρίζοντας τον Μύθο από την Ιατρική by Jen Gunter
andy_acid's review against another edition
informative
4.5
Just like a top reviewer on Goodreads has said, 'reading the owner's manual.'
The book is highly informative, comprehensive, and very useful for everybody who wants to expand their knowledge, regardless of whether they have a vagina or not. Although I am not an expert on female anatomy or have formal university education on human physiology, her broken-down explanations and the study references (that are so on point) have made me feel more informed without feeling dumb. Also, the chapters are thoroughly divided with topics that can be easily referenced or revisited without feeling like finding a needle in a haystack. I also loved how the author did a little tidbit on how to evaluate the legitimacy of online health information. Not to mention, her non-judgmental attitude towards many usual taboo topics surrounding sexual health is very reassuring.
4.5 stars/5

P.S: I am subscribed to the author's substack newsletter, and she also does a great job there.

Such a great review of the vagina. I also loved that this book is so inclusive - i did not expect to have chapters trans men's vaginas or vaginoplasty. I also like the look at the evidence that we have for some of our practice and the debunking of some common myths. I want a copy for my office

I wish I had this book when I was a preteen so I would have understood my body, what is medically normal and what treatment and routine medical appointments should be like. I wish all young people, regardless of gender, to read this book and have the basic facts. There is nothing "dirty" about this book. I'm very factual and educational. I'm happy to have this and gained a greater understanding of my body
