🐱 Doctors are firing back at critics of 'WAP,' saying it's healthy for people to have lubricated genitals

https://www.insider.com/obgyn-on-cardi-b-wap-lubricated-vaginas-are-healthy-2020-8

Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion's anthem dedicated to lubricated vaginas, "WAP," is being celebrated for its sex positivity and open discussion of a crucial bodily function.

But some are concerned that a "wet a-- p----" might be bad for your health.

"My only real concern is that the women involved — who apparently require a 'bucket and a mop' — get the medical care they require," the conservative talk-show host Ben Shapiro wrote on Twitter. "My doctor wife's differential diagnosis: bacterial vaginosis, yeast infection, or trichomonis." (Trichomonas is an infection caused by a parasite called trichomonas vaginalis.)

But OB-GYNs and sexual-health researchers are firing back, saying lubricated vaginas are perfectly healthy.


Dr. Daniel Gman, an OB-GYN and researcher focused on abortion and contraception at the University of California at San Francisco, expressed his support for the song on Twitter.

"In my medical opinion, it's normal—important even—for women to have a WAP," Grossman wrote. "Vaginal lubrication is common & orgasm experience depends on the individual. We should not shame women who have WAP."

Vaginal lubrication is important for sexual function, as it can make sex more comfortable and enjoyable. Sex without lubrication can cause vaginal irritation, pain, and damage to the vaginal lining.

"Certainly, as a gynecologist, we all know that vaginal lubrication is a good and healthy thing," Dr. Lauren Streicher, the medical director of the Northwestern Medicine Center for Sexual Medicine and Menopause, told Vulture. "It means your body is responding in the way it's supposed to be responding."


Dr. Jennifer GUNTer, an OB-GYN, tweeted that having a lubricated vagina is so key for healthy sex that she wished she could write a prescription for it.

Dr. Jen Villavicencio, an OB-GYN, recommended seeking advice from "your friendly neighborhood gyno" instead of taking advice from Twitter.

[Zero Day Defense]

Nobody thinks lubricated genitals are an issue. My issue is this song trying to normalize peeing on people as "sexy".

It's not. It's gross, and rude, it's deviant, and it ruins the bedsheets. We used to scold our children for bedwetting-- now it's supposed to be arousing because the pee is hitting the bed and another person? The hell?

...and I guess, the song is bad, too. It makes "Booty Butt Cheeks" sound like freaking Tchaikovsky.

It's left up to personal interpretation. I think it's wet ass-pussy and it's really a PSA about rectovaginal fistula

Either that or Cardi B needs to lay off the hentai.

 

[Brittnay Matthews]

You'd think we can't have more reasons to stereotype Americans as trash.

 

[Unassuming Local Guy]

Guy responds to hyperbole with joke, entire female gender degenerates into apoplectic fits and the world is flooded with propaganda articles.

This might be the biggest mountain to molehill ratio I've ever seen in my life. It also does a great job showcasing how much power the entertainment industry has. A Z-list celebrity criticizes their latest randomly generated "song" and suddenly a million journalists get a memo telling them what the news is this week.

No, I don't think I will.

"In my medical opinion, it's normal—important even—for women to have a WAP,"

Wait a minute, Doc, are you saying only women have wet pussies???

Send them to reeducation!

 

[DumbDude42]

This should not even be considered music

this is to music what porn is to film

 

[Noideawhattopick]

Just leaving this here

 

[Tasty Tatty]

Why is that a problem? There are millions of songs of the most retarded shit.

Why does anyone give a shit about this crappy song except for the niggas who just want to see some thicc ass?

Because:

So to these people : Baby it's cold outside is a song about rape and we should remove it from airwaves.
Wap is a song about sliding your nose up a slatch and licking it clean and THIS is ok for the radio?

This ain't about being sex positive, though, this is about stupid ass women who have nothing to offer trying to make being a basic trash whore the default for women. I have a husband, I have sex and a healthy sex life, but I am not talking about our fluids like it's some work of art nor I would make a song. And yes, this is a topic I would discuss with my daughter once she's older enough if she has questions, but only in private not becquse we're prudes but because sex should be personal and intimate and talk about it should also be treated this way.

Seriously, imagine being such a low life talentless hack who expects people clapping at her for saying "Lol, my vagina gets wet" and a society™ that actually does it...

I think it's more worrying that there's any kind of controversy over this 25 years after we all shrugged and accepted that most rap is now about pretending you commit gang murders on the reg.

I think the song is fine. It's not very good song, but the lyrical content seems perfectly fine to me in the context of it being a gross sleazy rap song. All the people needing fainting couches over the controversial lyrics (they're not) or championing it for being empowering to women (it's not) are where I see the real problem here.

 

[Dante Alighieri]

Everybody seems to be forgetting that Ben's wife is a doctor. Which goes to show nobody watches him since he reminds his viewers daily.

Seriously, where were all these people during CupcakKe? Gross-out sexual rap isn't new or stunning, it's just dumb.

 

[LMFAOForgotPw]

Why men shouldn’t talk about their dicks ever, and now presenting the vagina monologues!

 

[Dick Justice]

CatParty's hate clicks are singlehandedly keeping these clickbait sites afloat

 

[Pope Negro Joe the XIIIth]

I find the fact that everyone is falling for this obvious marketing a lot more offensive than the song could ever be.

And bitches please you hoes ain't Trina or Lil Kim, fuck up outta here.

 

[Screw Danlon]

I can't believe Shapiro managed to get this much outrage by playing the straight man. Holy shit if he did it on accident that would be even funnier.

“Straight” man. X to doubt.

 

[Dial M for Misgender]

We are devolving. We can't even agree about what constitutes a vagina anymore.

 

[LinkinParkxNaruto[AMV]]

negress makes a shitty song about wet pussy and journalists, doctors and intellectuals have to comment about it because this is the peak of culture now

Goddammit Burguers, please, just stop

 

[Ginger Piglet]

Righty ho then. Let's all have a song about having a big fucking erection.

 

[byuu]

This ain't about being sex positive, though,

I don't fucking care. Not everything needs to have a positive message or promote your ideal society.
There are songs about farting, poop, cum, urine, etc.. Why do people get their panties in a twist over vaginal fluids?
There's much more offensive content right on the front page of this site.

I thought the puritan Right who cry because of explicit lyrics were gone? And it's only those cucked lefties who get offended over a piece of media?
I would never even heard of the song if it wasn't for all these whiny cunts.

 

[Sperghetti]

So where were these doctors when this guy was making medically unsound statements about his genitals?

 

[wtfNeedSignUp]

For a song all about the bussy, all the fake hype and faker controversy makes it extremely gay.
