is it possible to have a labia minora that is protruding, such as is shown in one of your pics? how come? does that mean that the labia minora of a woman may also have different sizes, as is stated in the page? why? how come? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 210.213.95.228 ( talk • contribs) 07:05 (UTC), February 16, 2007.
I looked up this page to find out about the evolutionary/biological function of the labia monira. Does anyone know and could fill in the biological function? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.229.18.219 ( talk) 19:05, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
I was thinking same thing too. Feels good I'm not the only one being tortured in M1 embryo right now.Boonshofter 10:12, 7 October 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Boonshofter ( talk • contribs)

The penis article has six photos. Why are there so few photos here? Okay, the penis article shows penises erected and unerected and circumcised and uncircumcised. But still... The female genitals are as important as the male, right?
Anyone here think it's silly that the photo chosen for labia minora has almost none at all?
What are the sympton's for this?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.37.16.153 ( talk) 20:23, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
There is something rather bizarre about the lack of pubic hair on the two imagines. As if it's somehow the natural state. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.23.135.89 ( talk) 22:32, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
Wow, this article has so much room for improvement. I was surprised to see the article for such a major body part is not more developed. I have a number of suggestions, but I will start with the simplest first. I propose we link to the following internal pages under the 'See Also' section:

the following is not a summary of what is in the body, and the specific content is not supported by the source provided. parking it here for now while a related discussion is worked out at Talk:penis. The relevant page in the book is here which says: "The labia minora (homologue of the penile urethra and the skin of the penis in the male) are thin folds of stratified squamous epithelium that arise from the urethral folds. These folds are continuous with the epithelium of the vestibule lying between the vaginal orifice and the labia majora, The labia minora vary greatly in size and shape. They split anteriorly to enclose the clitoris, forming its prepuce anteriorly and frenulum posteriorly. The labia minora contain sebaceous glands and are rich in blood supply, but are devoid of hair follicles. They fuse posteriorly into the fourchette or posterior ring of the vaginal introitus".
They are homologous to the male foreskin, frenulum, urethra but no other penile skin. [1]

Quite possibly. I am rather the porn aficionado and I must say that the female pudenda are portrayed in all their variation and glory. And before the patriarchate gets blamed for this, men generally love the inner lips in all their variation and glory. My source for the second statement is that lips in porn are so variegated; and my source for the first statement is a cordial invitation, to all who may question its veracity, to google for vulvae and surf for a few minutes.
(I must concede the point for sculpture; inner lips are rare in that domain.) 2A01:CB0C:CD:D800:79A8:4CEC:EB5F:5455 ( talk) 13:34, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
