And, frankly, what may seem absurd to me may very well be interesting to another editor at another publication. Still, books about celebrating my "Venus Week" (a.k.a my period) and books about how to "Get a Life that Doesn't Suck" always make for rather hilarious press releases, as do many other products hitting the market. A winner from this week: a pitch from a soon-to-open MedSpa "dedicated to vaginal fitness." Yes, a spa for your lady parts. Pampering for your undercarriage. Exercise for your privates. Kegels until you drop. The New York City spa will also feature 'vaginal rejuvenation' and non-invasive skin rejuvenation. Now of course, I am not making fun of anyone who has real problems in that area and there's no reason not to work (quietly! on your own!) to strengthen weakened pelvic floor muscles (age and childbirth can lead to laxity down there). (Also, the surgeon behind this center does some important workâshe helps women with incontinence issues, as well as performes uterine-preserving prolapse repair, so I don't want to slam her or the issue of pelvic health.) Still, I guess I just have concerns about the rise in some of these more expensive, you-must-be-pretty-and-young-everywhere 'rejuvenating' procedures...and the press release's language just made me snicker. Oh, and then there's always this: special dye to color the "hair down there." Pink, anyone? What do you think? Do you want to treat your below-the-belt to a day at the spa or just stick to a bikini wax every four weeks? Photo from Flickr.

I must be old-fashioned (at 26 years old, I might add), but the only thing I can think of about this spa is... ew. The only people who get to "help" me down there are my gynaecology and my boyfriend. Point finale.
