ep. 67: How to Demystify Vaginas with Dr. Jen Gunter
For most of medical history, vulvas and vaginas have been mythologized as too dirty, dainty and/or deformed. But gynecologist Jen Gunter is on a mission to detox that douchebaggery. Cristen and Caroline get a check-up on what it really takes to take care of the V's and why haters call her the "vaginal antichrist."
Plus, Dr. Gunter answers Unladylike listeners' questions they've always wanted to know but have been too scared to ask other OB/GYNs.
