Where In The World Is The Wondrous Vulva Puppet?

Why yes, that IS the Wondrous Vulva Puppet on the Great Wall of China.

In case you haven’t heard of the Wondrous Vulva Puppet, it’s a tool used by many sex educators to talk about vulva anatomy in a fun and playful way. After all, what’s not fun about velvet labia majora and a satin clitoris?

MSP’s own Dr. Debby Herbenick made her Vulva Puppet famous during her appearance on the Tyra Banks Show. She also shared it with Dan Savage. Like Debby, I bought my Vulva Puppet at the Good Vibrations store in Berkeley, CA. To buy your very own vulva puppet, check out House O Chicks for the full collection, each named after a different goddess.

My goal is to have this be the first of many entries of the Vulva Puppet’s adventures around the globe. Stay tuned!

    Thanks Madeline! I’ve been brainstorming other places to take my puppet in the next year. Sydney, Hawaii, and (maybe) London are on the list so far.

    I love that part too! I especially enjoy how it show the connection to the satiny/ribbed G spot tissue.
