Vaginal Rejuvenation Doctor "Knows" Kegels Don't Work
Dr. David Matlock, the guy who pioneered the vaginal rejuvenation "industry," was on The View this morning to discuss his trade—and hit up his demo. He mentioned that women tell him what they want done by telling him how old they want their vaginas to feel, after which he made a pretty gross joke about women wanting vaginas like 14-year-olds. Joy Behar was not amused, and confronted him on the fact that creating tighter vaginas is actually more beneficial for men than for women. He disagreed, but didn't really explain why. However, he did say that he "knows" that kegels do not work. Is it just me, or is this "doctor" totally fucking unethical, going on a national talk show and telling women that kegel exercises are basically pointless? Clip above. -

Get A "Sexier" Vagina For The Low, Low Cost Of $18,000!
Remember Dr. Matlock , aka Dr. Sex? He's the dude who pioneered the whole "designer vagina" thing, selling genital cosmetic surgery to women, telling them that it will make sex feel physically better. Barf. First of all, when I went to two different doctors to get consultations for vaginoplasty for the Pimp My Vadge series last year, I was told by one doctor that by having surgery down there, you run the risk of seriously damaging the nerve endings in your clit. Secondly, wouldn't making a vagina tighter make sex feel better for the man, not the woman? Lastly, $18,000 for this crap!? Seriously!? Listen to Dr. Matlock pat himself on the back in the clip above. More » -

Pimp My Vadge
You know how there's that stoopid trend in plastic surgery in which women try to "normalize" their labia by homogenizing them? (I went for my own consultations, once upon a time.) Well, we have Dr. David Matlock, aka Dr. Sex, to thank for that. He's the dude who's pioneered the whole thing, and also invented the G-Shot (that shot that's supposed to enlarge your g-spot to enhance sexual pleasure, but has no real research behind it). Anyway, in this profile on Dr. Matlock in the Times of London, we learn that he is now a multimillionaire, and he refers to his patients as "customers." At least he's honest. [Times] -

Experts Agree: Vaginoplasty Is Stupid, Unnecessary, & Dangerous
We sorta figured out on our own that unnecessary cosmetic surgery on your vagina is bad for you, but now a report from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists is making it official. According to the report, there are no studies or scientific data supporting the efficacy of procedures such as "vaginal rejuvenation," "designer vaginoplasty," and "G-spot stimulation." Oh, and the report says that it's possible that someone could take a knife or syringe to you down there, but there's no real proof that they've changed anything for the better (or changed anything at all) because "standard medical nomenclature" is not used in regards to the procedure. Yikes! But what we found most troubling was this:Also of concern are ethical issues associated with the marketing of these procedures and the national franchising in this field. Such a business model that controls the dissemination of scientific knowledge is troubling.
As you'll remember, we investigated this whole bullshit business of vaginoplasty a few months back. We showed our (very normal) labia to some doctors, who we found through an extensive print campaign advertising the performance of the procedure, and through a PR firm that the one of the doctors hired to get the word out there about vaginoplasty.
