What do you think about cosmetic surgery for the genitals as outlined in this article?

Hi CL,

Thanks for your reply. As to your friend and her hysterectomy: I have read that doctors need to be extremely careful when cutting away the uterus as it is close to nerves and blood flow to the clitoris.

Definitely not something I would ever consider.
