It would be wrong for me not to feature this Vice Fashion photo shoot called “Merkin’ Around,” seeing as I’m “Britni TheVadgeWig,” and all.
If you ever wondered where the “VadgeWig” part of my name came from, I guess now is a good time to tell you! I used to be a very active commenter on Jezebel, and my name on the site was Vagina Wig. I have also changed it to “VadgeWig is More Socially Acceptable” and “Vagina Wig is a Merkin” at various times. I attached it to the end of “Britni” because many Jez commenters were beginning to read my blog, and I wanted them to know who I was.
But the name “Vagina Wig” on Jez was an L Word reference. A writer named Stacy Merkin writes a terrible review of Jenny’s book, and Jenny seeks revenge. At one point, she refers to Stacy as a “vagina wig,” as a merkin is, in fact, a vagina wig.

The third one down with the ponytail is the bestest!
When I saw these, I immediately thought of Eve Ensler's Vagina Monolouges and the bit in which women were asked to describe what their vagina would wear. One woman said, "a male tuxedo"
I'm kind of in love with the rainbow one–reminiscent of a clown wig–that lets the world know that while you may be serious, your vagina definitely is *not*.
I love that clip…
