(English) THE AOI FEMALE GENITAL KNOWLEDGE QUIZ

The Correct answer is 1.
All female external genitalia are included in the vulva: clitoris, vaginal opening and the labia minor and major

The Correct Answer is 3.
Half of women surveyed have inner vaginal lips or labia minor that are bigger that the outer ones (the labia major) – and half have bigger labia major than labia minor. No two women’s labia look quite the same, in shape, size or colour. Even in an individual woman, your labia is not exactly perfectly matched in size or shape (same way every woman’s two breasts are slightly mismatched). Don’t believe us? Use a hand-mirror.

The Correct Answer is 3
When sexually aroused, the genital tissues swell because of blood rushing to the pelvis. At this point you will notice both sets of labia, as well as the clitoris swelling up and becoming bigger.

The Correct Answer is 2
The clitoris has the highest concentration of nerve endings – about 8,000, which is double the number in the penis!

The Correct Answer is 1.
 But there is a catch. The tiny pea-shaped part is only the bit we see. The whole clitoris with all its muscular tissue (on the inside of the body) is the size of a medium karela, and the shape of a boomerang

The answer is 2
Yes! The clitoris is the only human organ whose function is to give its owner sexual pleasure.

The answer is 2
The hood is made of the same tissue that makes up the foreskin of penises.

The correct answer is 4
Many women like to be touched just on the hood, and often having lubrication helps. When pleasuring the clitoris, it’s best to start slow and adjust movement, rhythm and location on the basis of each individual woman’s response since different women respond differently.

The Correct Answer is 1
Flattening your tongue and using broad strokes is often more effective than using a ‘sword’ tongue. But here is an excerpt from a story which shows that softly pointy tongues can be good too:

“At this moment it occurred to me that it’s not a big penis a man needs, but a generous-sized mouth, spread as his was across me, like a starfish, both soft and roundly pointy, with a little burrowing leg-tongue and small suction feet gliding across the ocean floor in quick, creeping movements.”

The answer is 2
Some women may bleed because their hymen, a stretchy tissue covering the opening to the vagina, breaks. But some women aren’t born with hymens. For others the hymen might break during sports, using tampons, or other reasons, so they don’t bleed. So it is not proof of virginity.

The Answer is 2
The vaginal walls relax when a woman is aroused, making it appear ‘loose’, but after sexual intercourse it goes back to its original shape. How? Pull the corners of your mouth and stretch it. Doesn’t it snap back to its regular shape? After many childbirths though, sometimes the vaginal muscles stretch too much and don’t return to their original tightness

The Correct Answer is 2
Researchers have fought about it for decades, with some saying it doesn’t exist. As it stands now, many researchers say that some, but not all women, appear to have a very sensitive region, about five to eight centimetres up the vaginal wall, with many nerve endings.

The Correct Answer is 2
Some do, some don’t. Anything from not spending enough time on foreplay to breast-feeding and the side effects of contraception can impact wetness.

The Answer is 2
Some women feel that they get adequately wet and do not need lubricant. Some women experience vaginal dryness frequently. Everyone experiences it sometimes. Lubricants can be a blessing in case of penetrative sex and also to maintain a good rhythm to reach orgasm.

A third of women interviewees said in a survey that they ‘squirt’ out liquid when they have an orgasm. It’s actually pretty common to shoot out liquid from the vagina during orgasm, and it could be a mixture of urine from the bladder (although it doesn’t smell or look like urine) and whitish fluid from the peri-urethral gland.

The Answer is 3
The urethra is a very small hole just above the vagina, below the clitoris. It connects to the urinary bladder, which stores urine until it is ready to be discharged.

The Answer is 1
Vaginal glands produce fluids or discharge that help to clean out dead cells and other bad things. You should not clean vaginas with soap or chemicals – just water is fine.

The answer is 1
You should start with 10 a day and then slowly increase the number. Both men and women can benefit from kegel exercises to strengthen their pelvic floor muscles that can weaken due to many factors such as childbirth, age and weight gain.

The Correct Answer is 3
The cervix is about 2-3 centimetres long. It connects the vagina and uterus, and sperm passes through it before fertilisation

The Correct Answer is 1
The whitish-coloured ovary is most often found in pairs in women. Each one is found along the walls of the uterus, within the pelvic cavity. It also produces important hormones like oestrogen and progesterone which are linked to processes like menstruation.
