A Woman’s Natural Vaginal Odor Can Be Pleasant And Musky!

A side effect of yeast infections which you might notice is vaginal odor. This can come about as a result of the vaginal discharge which is a common symptom of yeast infections.

This can be cleared up speedily if the yeast infection is also cleared up. Unlike the old school of thought douches are not needed to get rid of vaginal odor. And although douches have been known to cause many a problem of the vagina there are still quite a few women who use them to get rid of vaginal odor.

In actual fact the vagina needs no such help. The only time that there will be a strong unpleasant vaginal odor is when there is a medical condition such as a yeast infection, or in some cases when a woman is menstruating.

And even in this last case the odor is not necessarily a vaginal odor, but is instead is the odor of dried blood and the discarded byproduct from the ovaries. The vagina itself normally holds a musky odor that is unique to every woman.

Many people aren’t aware of this, or refuse to believe this, but the vagina is self cleaning organ and needs no outside help.

By using such things as industrial douches, scented feminine hygiene products, and vaginal deodorant sprays to ensure of the elimination vaginal odor, you are in fact destroying the delicate balance of the vagina.

Douches for instance will rid you of any perceived vaginal odor, and flush out anything and everything that’s residing in the vagina including the good bacteria which is needed to keep the vagina in balance. This is why douching on a regular basis is bad for you.

The use of scented feminine hygiene products like scented pads, panty liners and tampons, although might seem harmless, in the long run it can be quite detrimental. Since these products all stay in intimate contact with your vagina there can be a buildup of infection causing bacteria which can also lead to an imbalance.

This is especially true of tampons. If tampons are left in the vagina long periods of time during menstruation, the accumulation of blood left to ferment in the humidity of the vagina can lead to Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS), as a result of certain types of bacteria forming.

The purpose of the scented tampon – to mask the unpleasant vaginal odor – is also lost if the tampon is left for long periods of time. Vaginal deodorants will also only work for a short period of time at masking vaginal odor. In the long run these deodorants will destroy the vaginal balance creating even more problems.

The moral of the story then, is that although you might believe that you have a vaginal odor, this is not necessarily the case unless you’re suffering from a medical condition of which vaginal odor is a symptom. A woman’s natural vaginal odor can be pleasant and musky, and not at all revolting as you might be led to believe.

Is It Appropriate For Women Over 40 Wearing Thigh-high Boots

September 11, 2015 / como / 0 Comments

Let’s begin by getting down to the nitty-gritty and answering the question in the title. Can women over 40 wear thigh-highs? The answer is of course they can, but… as with any fashion trend, you have to get it right and the thigh-high boot does come with a lot of connotations, some good and some bad. Let’s take a look at the history of the thigh-high boot to begin with.

The History
During the 60s and 70s, the thigh-high was a fantastic fashion statement. It gave women a lot of sex appeal without taking away their “good” reputations and the look was very laid-back, many a time worn with the classic over the knee denim skirt, for example. Then the thigh-high somehow earned itself a reputation associated with promiscuity and prostitution. A number of female prostitute characters from Hollywood movies have been clothed in the thigh high boot to portray the kind of character the directors have wanted to represent to their audiences. The boot became a symbol for women with loose morals and dignity. In recent years the thigh high boot has made a huge come back and this is why women over 40 want to know if they can get away with wearing the item as much as a young woman can without evoking those negative connotations of the past.

How Can Women Over 40 Wear the Thigh-High?
Regardless of your age, the really tight thigh high boot is best worn by women with slim legs. If your legs are short and chunky it becomes very difficult to pull this style of well. So consider this first beyond anything else.

The main issue is that we don’t want women over 40 looking like they are trying to hard, trying to be younger than what they are or wearing a costume rather than simply enjoying a fashion trend. Therefore, stick to the following rules and you’ll be fine:

1. Avoid showing lots of flesh (mini skirts are a no go area)
2. Tight jeans are classic and safe as well as being very comfortable and sexy
3. Keep it simple (avoid those styles with lots of decoration: laces, zips, buckles, colourful stitching, anything! Classic is key and very flattering)
4. Avoid patent or shiny boots (you will look like you want to star in a porn movie)
5. Dark colours are best as they don’t call out for attention (greys, browns, blues and the classic black)
6. Be confident (if you want to wear them, wear them without apologizing for it and feel comfortable in your clothing)
7. Bottom line is: Don’t put them on if you feel embarrassed by what you see in the mirror. Search for a different pair that make you feel cool and calm. We are better judges of what we look like to the rest of the world than we think. Use your judgement.
