Living with a Vagina - Paul Payten

Whether we are female or male, we all are influenced by our physical structure and in our world the feminine gender has a particular and extensive role in our daily lives and future development. Because women are capable of giving birth and men are not, they have been valued, used and abused over millennia and in as many and diverse ways as there are communities on Earth. Living With A Vagina is partly autobiographical where I look at the influence of the female sex and their physical attributes in colouring our world. Though only lightly researched from contemporary referencing of trends, advertising and literature with their archetypal boundaries or academic perspectives, I wish to value and question what reality is for each of us, be we LGBTIQA or +.
