Me and my Vajayjay

It all started when Miranda Bailey, a pregnant doctor on Grey’s Anatomy, told an intern to stop looking at her Vajayjay as her private parts were on display during labor.  Then Oprah, a Grey’s Anatomy fan, used it on her show.  Then Tyra Banks, Jimmy Kimmel, and a bunch of blogs started spouting this new word for your vagina.  It’s everywhere now, but how do we feel about it?  Is it just another word used because we’re embarrassed about our nether parts?  Or is it a friendly, all-inclusive name that includes the labia and clitoris along with the vagina?  I tend to go with the friendly judgement, if only because it sounds so much more intelligent than “down there.”  Vajayjay has a fun, sing-songy feel, kind of like an adorable name for a kitten.  See that?  We’ve come full-circle, back to that other feline alias.
