Vagina: A New Biography

American journalist and writer Naomi Wolf, author of the cult "The Beauty Myth", dedicated her new book ... to the vagina. The study undertaken by Woolf turned into a fascinating and full of unexpected discoveries journey into the inner world of a woman. The way in which the vagina is treated in different cultures - with respect or contempt, attentively or dismissively - demonstrates the attitude towards the woman as such. For tantric adepts, the vagina is the path to enlightenment, for the medieval church fathers it was the gateway to hell, and for today's pornography-riddled mass culture, it is just one of many means of entertainment. But you can understand what the vagina really is only if you know that there is a close connection between it and the brain. This is proven by scientific studies on the biochemical processes that the vagina triggers in the brain. It is the vagina that determines the creative potential of a woman, the degree of her self-confidence and even character. In fact, it is an integral part of the female soul. Knowing about this connection, one can finally better understand female sexuality and individuality, and for women this means understanding and appreciating themselves.
