- “I’ve had so many yeast infections, if I sit out in the sun too long, I start to rise.”
- “You know what’s sad? My vagina is just like Myspace. It was popular in the ‘90s, but now nobody wants to go there.”
- “Her vagina is so dry, she can start a fire by rubbing her legs together.”
- “My gynecologist does jokes. He puts his ear to me and goes, ‘I can hear the ocean.’”
- “I call my G-spot Amelia Earhart because nobody looks for it anymore.”
- “Before I go to the gynecologist, I shower, I douche, I shower and then I douche again. Then I try a few breath mints. Sometimes they fall out. And why? Because you want to feel fresh when you’re being humiliated.”
- “He doesn’t even have an exam table. He just asks me to undress and do a somersault.”
- “The only good thing about loud vagina farts is they scare away the crabs.”
- “I have a Jewish gynecologist. Once a year, he gives me a Pap schmear.”
- “He is so crude, he starts the examination by screaming, ‘What a dump!’”
- “Her vagina was so dry, senior citizens go there to retire.”
- “My gynecologist takes out his mirror and says, ‘May I show you to your womb?’”
