I'm sorry I've upset people. It wasn't my intention. I think it's great that people are comfortable with their bodies and I wish I could turn back the clock and feel this way too.
@labialover I don't mean to offend. This site has (in some ways) helped. But in other ways made me worse. When people say how common this it it makes me feel better. But then so many guys come on here saying they can never find a girl like this and it's so rare etc... I know these men like it, but they are still pointing out the fact that it's unusal. I am paralysed with fear by the idea that a man may see it and be freaked out.
@kitty77 and @eva I didn't mean to say there was anything wrong with my lips. I never say anything bad about other women who tell me their 'imperfections' I just point out my own. As for the transference theory... it may be partly true but honestly I only started feeling this bad when i realised it was unsual.
Anyway, i have taken and sent several pics looking enormous. I would very much appreciate an HONEST answer as to how big they are.
Thank you Cornball. I have sent a couple more pics in. I don't care if people discuss them or not. To me doing the pictures was very hard as it upsets me alot (they seem to look bigger than ever in close up shots!!)
Some days I'll think 'Oh the're not that bad/not that different' and then I see those photos of everything hanging and feel a million times worse.
I obviously know there are no other girls exactly like me. But please understand until a year ago i thought all girls stuck out aftter puberty. To discover what I have is 'unusual' and undesirable (yes not by you but by society as Cornball has already pointe out) is extremely distressing for me.
Anyway, please put images up. We can have an HONEST discussion about how big I really am. (I want to know if I'm exaggerating or if I really am one of the biggest girls- eg top 10/5%. Please don't lie and tell me they're average if they're not.
My greatest fear is surprisng a guy. I'm being honest- i wouldn't want to get down with a guy and be surprised by his tiny penis. The same goes for a man. Even if he thinks "ooohheer that's not what i was expecting." I know the right guy will say he loves me anyway. But sex is SUCH an important part of a relationship i really don't want him to be secretly wishing i had smaller lips forever.... As I said, I wouldn't break up with a guy who was tiny (too shallow) but would it make me less attracted to him sexually? If I'm honest? Yes it would.
@ECC22 - Hi sweetheart.  I wanted to reply to you on this thread 
sooner but I have a lot of things I want to address so I've only just 
got around to typing it.  I saw recently that you were leaving the site 
for a bit in order to get away from having labia as your dominant 
thought, so I applaud you for this but also hope you get to read this 
before you go.  
Firstly, this bit...
QUOTE:-  "I've
 gone away from this site for a few weeks, tried to feel better  about 
myself but NOTHING seems to work. They are sore and irritated all  the 
time from rubbing/ me trying to push them inside the other lips. I'm  
aware of them when I walk, when I bend down and even when I sleep I  
dream about them. I wash daily and thoroughly but they seem to smell  
and get horrible white stuff in all the folds really quickly. (I don't  
have any infections.) Everyone says hairless vaginas seem more hygeinic 
 and I think small labia would smell better/stay clean for longer."
Whatever
 you do, don't listen to those idiots who promote douching or sticking 
anything else up there, including yoghurt.  The vagina is SELF-CLEANING;
 nothing needs to go up there that wouldn't do in nature.  Douching 
causes more trouble than you had to begin with because it washes away 
the 'good' bacteria that you need up there.  Natural, live yoghurt may 
have beneficial bacteria in it but it is an alkaline food and the vagina
 is acidic; the alkalinity brings down the acid in the vagina and that's
 when the 'bad' bacteria which cause problems multiply.  Semen is also 
alkaline and so it has the same effect, which is why it can cause so 
many problems for those of us with sensitive kitties when condoms are 
foregone and a man ejaculates inside us.  There are plenty of other 
things which can cause this kind of soreness and irritation - underwear 
made  of man-made fibres instead of wearing cotton or silk; the washing 
powder used to wash said underwear; bubble-bath; water too hot; and 
soap.  In fact, soap is one of the worst.  Any doctor worth their salt 
will not promote using soap to wash the genital area (both for men and 
women) as it irritates mucous membranes (and can cause UTIs) and is also
 generally alkaline.  I recommend that you forego underwear as I stopped
 having any problems when I stopped wearing underwear about 11 years 
ago; it means the air can circulate and you can let yourself breathe 
down there and also avoids your kitty being in close contact with the 
detergents that clothes are washed in.  I recommend you get yourself a 
muslin cloth, preferably of organic cotton, and simply wash with JUST 
WATER.  If you sit in a bath, then don't have the water too hot, and 
don't add anything to the bath water.  Go for a week or two and see how 
you go on.  In the meantime, buy yourself a body-wash that contains tea 
tree oil.  I use the Australian Body Care brand for now, but will be 
looking at getting a paraben-free one.  Tea tree oil is antibacterial, 
antiseptic and antifungal, and has a distinct medicinal-type smell to 
it.  It kills odours and is also used for oily skin.   It sounds like 
your sebum and sweat glands are very productive.  We don't have many 
sebum glands in that area, but we do still have some.  Tea tree has a 
drying effect.  I don't recommend its use daily, as it will dry you too 
much down there and you will get 'chapped lips' if you're not careful 
but I can't recommend it enough for making you feel clean and fresh.  
It's way healthier for your lady garden than soap and other harmful 
detergents.  If you feel too dry after the tea tree, just use coconut 
oil as a safe, natural moisturiser.
I also recommend Fem-Dophilus by Jarrow Formulas (available at iHerb - use code TOH009 for a $5.00
 discount on your first iHerb order).  I can't find anywhere in the UK 
that doesn't sell this at astronomical prices, so you'll have no choice 
but to send to the US for it.  It is made up of the probiotic cultures 
L-Rhamnosus and L-Reuteri, the only ones to pass through the intestinal 
wall and set up home in the vagina and urethra.  These are the 'good' 
bacteria that naturally populate the vagina but you can tell when their 
numbers are depleted when you get yeast infections, BV, bladder/UTIs, or
 you've been on a course of antibiotics.  Unfortunately, conventional 
antibiotics kill the 'good' bacteria as well as the 'bad.'  I highly recommend this product.
Regarding
 'hairless vaginas,' bear in mind that we have pubic hair for a reason. 
 It absorbs moisture; it shows that we are sexually mature and fertile; 
it holds our natural scent which is attractive to the other sex. If you 
take your hair off with a razor then be ready to battle ingrowing hairs,
 infection, itchiness as it grows back, and toilet tissue sticking to 
the stubble!  It's a high maintenance option, and you will need to use 
natural baby-wipes (like those from NatraCare) often to clean off sweat 
since you won't have pubic hair to absorb it anymore.  My own preference
 is to use a gentleman's shaver (those that are used on heads and 
beards) as you can take the hair off above the skin so you won't get 
ingrowing hairs (and the infections these cause) and you can use 
different 'grades' for different areas and shaping.  Laser hair removal,
 intense pulsed light or electrolysis are the best options if you want 
to be completely bald down there, they may be costly but at least 
they're permanent and you won't have to think about it again once it's 
done.  I wouldn't recommend depilatory creams due to the chemicals they 
contain but they're certainly a gentler alternative than shaving with a 
razor, as long as you buy one for 'sensitive skin.'  I don't recommend 
waxing due to the pain and greater chance of ingrowing hairs from the 
hair being plucked out.  Plus, you will definitely get bruising in that 
area after a wax because the skin is so delicate.
I found this on the internet that you might want to 
bear in mind, so I'm just copy/pasting as I think it will interest you 
and others:  
~ "Persons that shave or trim  their 
pubic hair are unwittingly eliminating from their bodies an  
extraordinarily powerful ingredient in the recipe for satisfying sexual 
 relations – pheromones, bodily secretions that are unconsciously sensed
  by the human brain and deemed highly necessary for fulfilling sexual  
relations by physicians specializing in human sexuality.  A specialized 
structure located inside the nose called the Vomeronasal  organ detects 
invisible airborne and odourless pheromone molecules that  are produced 
in specialized sweat glands (apocrine glands) which occur  primarily in 
the genital and axillary areas, and to a lesser degree in  the naval and
 anal areas of the body.  Body hair in these areas trap and concentrate 
the apocrine gland  pheromone secretions, where naturally occurring 
bacteria begin to  decompose them. During this natural decomposition 
process, pheromones  are released into the air as sweat evaporates from 
the skin and body  hair. Once airborne, especially during sexual 
relations, these  pheromones are sensed by the Vomeronasal organ. These 
signals are then  sent through specialized nerves to a part of the brain
 called the  hypothalamus -- a part known for its capacity to alter 
one's emotions,  hormones, and sexual behavior.   During sexual 
relations, the effect of pheromones is extraordinarily  powerful, 
resulting in a high degree of stimulation and activity.   Elimination or
 reduction of body hair in the area of the apocrine glands  results in a
 corresponding reduction of pheromones.  This in turn  translates into 
mildly to highly decreased sexual stimulation of one’s  sexual partner. 
  The main pheromones produced by the apocrine glands are:  In males:   
Androstenone, Androstenol, and Androsterone. These pheromones  strongly 
increase the desire for sexual intercourse in women.   In females:   
Copulins, an assortment of fatty acids and other biological  molecules 
that serve to induce copulation in men.   Interestingly, research has 
demonstrated that homosexual males and  females react as strongly to 
pheromones released by members of their own  sex, as heterosexual males 
and females respond to pheromones released  by members of the opposite 
sex." ~
You said, ~QUOTE~:  "That's why I came looking for 
stats/information on how many women are  'messy looking' down there. 
Whenever I'm with women, i always think I  must have the ugliest, 
biggest, saggiest fanny there.  I have tiny  outer labia (they haven't grown since I was a child and are
 1cm deep) so  I have this lump of rotting meat hanging out of me. 
Urghh."
I am not in the least bit offended by your 
words.  This statement does, however, make me so sad, not only for you 
that you feel this way about yourself, but for the plight of the 
sisterhood in general.  It unfortunately reflects the thoughts of most 
women, because the misogynistic society we live in promotes this level 
of self-hatred and wants women to think negatively about themselves.  
The best thing I can recommend to help you emotionally is the book by 
Louise L. Hay called 'You Can Heal Your Life.'  She is one of the most 
inspirational women you will ever encounter.  I also recommend you buy 
the Gift Edition because of the colourful illustrations it has 
throughout. She also has subliminal affirmation CDs which I promise will
 help you enormously.  I've provided the links for you.  For now you 
might want to try one of the first exercises in the book, and that is to
 look yourself directly in the mirror and say, 'I love you' to yourself 
and notice how it makes you feel and what issues might come up.  Some 
people feel silly, some feel sad, some start to cry, and some just can't
 say it.  I promise you, if you keep telling yourself many times 'I love
 you' everyday, you will start to feel and believe it.  Another exercise
 is to picture yourself as a little girl, aged 6 years old, frightened, 
crying and looking for love.  Let your-adult-self observe her.  What 
does your-adult-self want to do?  Does she want to go up to this crying,
 frightened little girl and put her arms around her, comfort her and 
tell her everything is going to be all right?  Or does she want to shout
 at her and scold her for not being 'perfect,' and for having "ugly, 
saggy" body parts?  Which one does that little girl still inside you 
deserve - love and approval, or criticism and hate?  I'll also type you 
out this affirmation which you can copy out and start saying everyday.  
But don't just read the words, say it with conviction, and believe it!
"In
 the infinity of life where I am, all is perfect, whole, and complete.  I
 no longer choose to believe in old limitations and lack.  I now choose 
to begin to see myself as the Universe sees me - perfect, whole, and 
complete.  The truth of my Being is that I was created perfect, whole, 
and complete.  I will always be perfect, whole, and complete.  I now 
choose to live my life from this understanding.  I am in the right place
 at the right time, doing the right thing.  All is well in my world."

LabiaLover
 sums this one up just right with... ~QUOTE~ "-- have you considering for a 
moment the sexual activity of some of these men??  I  mean I don't say 
this to offend any of the guys on this site (and feel  free to chime in 
here fellas if what I say isn't true), but besides @mrmarquis and 
@tempest_driver  who have probably experienced as many women as I have, 
if not more, I  suspect the vast majority of men on this site haven't 
had many women with  which to compare labia in the first place,"~ ...and 
don't forget that you and I live in the UK, take a good look around, 
there are so many God damn fugly men living here that it surprises me we
 are reproducing!  The men you mention probably can't even get ONE 
woman, period, so especially don't listen to them when they're making 
stupid jokes about labia size!  I suspect that they're covering up their own fears/insecurities when they do this.  Ignore them.
Sugar Plum Faery,
Well said, my dear, well said. I do hope that all of your effort is helpful to ECC22. It is my hope, that with all the advice, the guidance, and the love expressed here, she can find her way to the full enjoyment and appreciation of her body, along with all the joy and pleasure it was designed to provide her.
