When Florence Schechter discovered that there's a penis museum in Iceland,nette porno izlemek but no vagina museum anywhere in the world, she was "pretty miffed." In fact, the only thing that came close was an online vagina museum in Austria.
"There is no physical space wholly dedicated to vaginas and the people who have them," she told me. So, she decided there was only one thing to be done: "Make one."
Schechter set about creating the Vagina Museum back in March 2017. It all started with a pop-up. Two and a half years later, the Vagina Museum will finally open its first brick-and-mortar premises in London's Camden Market.

So, why do we need a museum that's dedicated to vaginas? Back in 2017, when Schechter was in the process of raising money for the premises, I asked her this exact question.
"Because vaginas are amazing! There is such a wonderful variety out there and diversity is what makes this world beautiful. Vaginas are not talked about enough. Why is that?" she said.

"This has major implications such as people not going to their doctors about their health as they aren't comfortable talking about it, not seeking help when they're victims of abuse, and issues like consent and contraception," Schechter said.
SEE ALSO: There's a museum for penises, but not for vaginas, yet that could changeA report by UK gynaecological cancer research charity Eve Appeal found that 65 percent of young British women have a problem using the words "vagina" or "vulva" and almost 40 percent of 16-25 year olds use code names like "lady parts" when discussing their gynaecological health. According to cervical cancer charity Jo's Trust, more than a quarter of 25 to 29 year olds in Britain feel "too embarrassed to attend cervical screening."
The Vagina Museum will open to the public on Nov. 16 and admission will be free of charge. Per a press release, the museum is "inclusive and open to people of all ages, genders, and sexual orientation."

The museum will also launch an outreach programme supporting healthy and inclusive sex and relationships education, and will work with doctors and medical professionals to offer services and support to the trans and intersex communities.
Like most museums, there will be a bustling programme of events including film screenings, workshops, stand-up comedy, quiz nights, not to mention a gift shop bursting with vagina and vulva merchandise. You'll also be able to hire the museum as a venue for things like hen parties, first period parties, or even conferences.

The Vagina Museum will be located at Unit 17 and 18 Stables Market, Chalk Farm Road, London, NW1 8AH and there will be no minimum age requirement (other than during age-restricted film screenings). It opens to the public on Nov. 16, 2019.
