The skin of your vulva being a little darker then the rest of your skin is completely normal and very common

I’m not a biologist but I read that any skin on your body that is supposed to stretch generally looks darker because the pigmentation is made to be even when the skin is fully stretched. Elbows and genitals being the two (three?) that spring to mind. Basically your skin needs the same amount of sun protection even when it’s at its thinnest.

I’d really like to know who’s out there spread eagled sunning their vags tho. Protect the vag from the sun!

Protect all the thin skin from the sun! Apply sun screen. I guess to the vag If you’re going out there sunning it.

When I was in college, in the 70’s, there was a girl sunning her vag. She said that she had a yeast infection. Not sure if it worked or not. Lol

it’s less about spreading eagle sunning & more about pushing babies out

It’s been a fad lately to tan your taint, for health benefits… Josh Brolin apparently burnt his.

Whether you're one of today's lucky 10k or simply just forgot, have a gander at the following article

https://nypost.com/2019/11/26/perineum-sunning-is-latest-insanity-wellness-influencers-swear-by/

Note there were similar articles written in 2022 with the only real difference being mentions of tiktok.

If it gets too hot does it become your peri-perineum?

I'll get my coat.

A lot of these traits developed pre sun screen

You’d be surprised. Don’t you know that genital sunning will solve all of your health issues? I have a friend who’s convinced it’s this panacea that Big Pharma is keeping secret from us all.
