American journalist and writer Naomi Wolf, author of the cult “The Beauty Myth,” dedicated her new book... to the vagina. Woolf's research turned into a fascinating and full of unexpected discoveries journey into the inner world of a woman. The way the vagina is treated in different cultures - with respect or contempt, consideration or disdain - demonstrates the attitude towards women as such. For tantric adherents, the vagina is the path to enlightenment; for the medieval church fathers, it was the gates of hell; and for modern mass culture, permeated with pornography, it is simply one of many means of entertainment. But you can understand what the vagina really is only if you know that there is a close connection between it and the brain. This is proven by scientific research on the biochemical processes that the vagina triggers in the brain. It is the vagina that determines a woman’s creative potential, the degree of her self-confidence and even her character. In fact, it is an integral part of the female soul. Knowing this connection, one can finally better understand female sexuality and individuality, and for women, this means understanding and appreciating themselves.
