I don’t spend so much time staring at my genitals that I’d ever notice if mine was fading in color, but I’m glad to know that if I ever did, a solution already exists.

My New Pink Button is a cosmetic colorant that promises to restore the pink back to a woman’s genitals.  The creators noted that over the years, it’s normal for a woman’s labia to lose its pink hue due to stress or childbirth.

This specialty stain “blends with the skin’s natural color” and lasts for about three days – “perfect for a romantic weekend” (during which, you’d of course want your vagina at its pinkest).

I find this somewhat racist, since minority women wouldn’t have the need to color their vaginas pink (unless they are into punk rock pussy, perhaps). Also, I didn’t see corresponding links for “My New Black Button” or the like…
