We remain forever obsessed with this image of a woman terrifying the devil himself with her pussy but did you know there's context? Who wants to hear the context for why the devil is so frightened by a vulva? Image
btw if anything, the context is weirder than the image
So this pic of a lady scaring the devil with her clunge is an 1896 illustration by Charles Eisen of the poem "The Devil of Pope Fig Island" by Jean de la Fontaine, a 17th century French fabulist.

A St Andrew's Day fact: Scotland has produced the highest number of men who have a part of the gynaecological anatomy named after them. Three parts are named after Scotsmen. So let's do a thread of the parts and the men whose names they bear.
(before we start, let's address two questions. Denmark and Germany hold shared second place, having produced two men who have bits of the gynae anatomy named after them; there are zero parts named after women)
JAMES DOUGLAS (1675-1742), born in West Calder, is the namesake of the POUCH OF DOUGLAS. Also known as the rectouterine pouch, it's an extension of the peritoneum between the rectum and uterus, kind of forming a little fluid-filled pocket between these parts.

In 2008, a paper was published reporting on a woman who had normal periods, conceived and gave birth normally, went through menopause normally and had normal hormones. Everything about her was as expected... except that most of the cells in her body had XY chromosomes.
Now, typically a fertilised egg with a 46XY karyotype will go on to have a penis and testes, and produce sperm. With a 46XX karyotype, it will go on to have a uterus and ovaries, vagina and vulva, and produce eggs.

Typically.

There are lots of variations.
The woman's family came to the attention of doctors because many members of her family had intersex traits or a history of infertility. Her daughter had a 46XY karyotype - she saw a doctor because she hadn't developed breasts or started her periods at age 17.

WHO'S READY FOR A LITTLE BIT OF 15TH CENTURY ASTROLOGY? We're going to call out your sign, 15th century-style.

Anatomical Zodiac by the Limbourg Brothers from Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry, a 15th century book of hours, circa 1412-1416, Musée Condé. Image
In this illustration, the 12 signs of the zodiac are depicted around the edge of a vulva shape. Inside are two androgynous figures with the signs corresponding with parts of the body.
So if you're an Aries, you're the head. If you're Capricorn, you're knees. If you're Scorpio, you're crotch.

We were born on 20th March, which makes us beneath the feet. Oof.

It's #InternationalMensDay, so we're going to introduce you to some trans men from history today.
Before we begin, we'd like to note there are caveats in interpreting people from the past as trans. This is discussed in our podcast episode Trans Saints and Gay Vikings, featuring @MxComan and @queertyyr - you can listen here vaginamuseum.co.uk/podcast/transs…
We'll start with a trans saint discussed in the podcast: St Marinos the Monk. Marinos lived in the 5th century, in what is now Syria or Lebanon. He became a monk as a young man - in this 14th century French illustration, he's the guy in red.
