Following rigorous competition and more than 130,000 voters, the World’s Most Beautiful Vagina Contest anointed a champion this week. It was a strange, difficult-to-gauge event—but that’s why organizers turned to scientists to tell us what it all means.
U.K. resident Nell, 27, won first place and $5,000 in the pageant with a vulva beauty ranking of 7.7 out of 10. Jenny, 23, of Bavaria, Germany, took second place with a 7.3; and Anita, 20, from Hungary, came in third. They each earned $2,500 and $1,250, respectively.
The contest was sponsored by Brian Sloan, who is also the manufacturer of the Autoblow 2 . It’s known as “the first truly realistic alternative to traditional pleasure products for men,” according to the its website .
These winners will also be flown out to Los Angeles, where their vulvas will be 3D-scanned to later be reproduced for the Autoblow device.
Sloan contracted a group of data scientists to analyze the contest’s findings for their scientific implications. The data was then compiled in “ The Vulva Paper .”
If you’re a visual learner, you can view photo examples of each class here .
The Vulva Paper’s website says scientists “used the contest data to assess the diversity in vulval morphology and voters’ preference for different morphologies.” A total of 182 women participated in the contest; 110 entries were examined for the study (if measurements could not be taken from the photo, the entry was not considered).
The scientists viewed each entry on a 15-inch computer screen, zooming in “until the genitalia were easily measured using a screen ruler,” read the paper .
They measured labia majora length, labia minora length, and clitoral hood length.
Finally, the scientists rated the complexity of the labia minora; they used the three categories of rugosity (smooth, moderate, marked) to do so. To prevent vaginal bias, the same person also conducted all of these measurements. The scientists later used this research to classify the contest’s entries into six different categories of “vulval morphology.”
A chart detailing the six classes is included below:
As far as methodology is concerned, a random assortment of entries was sent to each voter, who was then asked to rate the vulva pictured on a scale from 1 to 10. These voters were only able to rank one photo at a time, but could also vote on an unlimited number of entries. The scientists compiled 2,766,671 ratings from 134,707 contest voters.
“To reduce individual biases, we centered each voter’s ratings using their mean and standard deviation. This allowed us to reflect the preferences of voters on the same scale,” read the study .
According to the paper , each voter rated 21 photos, on average. Each vulva also received 15,285 votes, on average.
The study also found that “roughly 51% of voters preferred the first two classes of non-protruding, simple labia. The other 49% favored the four more complex vulva classes.”
“As expected from the rankings that we saw at the country and local levels, Class 1 vulvas are preferred over the others more often. But the combined percentages of voters who preferred more complex classes of vulvas far outweighed those who preferred the simplest style.”
The winners’ photos, however, were not included in the study—having been among the participants whose photos were not able to be considered. Moreover, the “doggy style” posture featured in these entries made it difficult for the scientists to complete the necessary measurements.
“Indeed, pictures depicting contest entrants in a doggy style position obtained ratings 2 points higher on average (p <0.001) than others. Other features, like piercings in the clitoral hood, didn’t affect the ratings,” read the study .
So basically, the “doggy style” photos generated “influential excitement” among the contest’s voters—an important competitive advantage for all future entrants to consider.

Contrary to popular belief, most vaginas aren't neat little packages with all the pieces perfectly tucked in.
Rather, vaginas all look quite different. However, according to a former bikini waxer who goes only by Mel to protect the identity of her clients, there are five different overall vagina shapes that she has seen in her career.
While these types aren't scientific or 'a mathematic algorithm', Mel told Elite Daily : 'This is just to help women understand this weird "secret" [the appearance of our vaginas] we keep from our friends and society at large is not as scandalous or peculiar as we may have thought.'
Neat little package: A former bikini waxer said she has divided vaginas into five shapes, including the tidy Ms. Barbie
Type two: Illustrated by Kylah Benes , they also include the Ms. Puff, which is like the Ms. Barbie but longer
Her shape names are not the actual vagina, which is the whole, but rather the outside appearance — most of which has something to do with the labia majora (the outer lips) and the labia minora (the inner lips).
The most uncommon shape is what Mel calls the Ms. Barbie, in which the labia minora are totally contained within the labia magora. The waxer noted that this is what most people think of when they picture a vagina, but it is not what most vaginas look like.
Similar to the Ms. Barbie is the Ms. Puffs. The labia minora are still contained within the labia majora, but the lips of the vagina sit lower on the the pubic pone and are 'either full and puffed up or thin and loose'.
Contrary to popular belief, the way the lips hang has little to do with the age or weight of a woman.
Most common: She most frequently saw women with this shape, in which the labia minora peek out the bottom
Bodies: In this shape, the labia minora peek out the top and the labia magora meet at the bottom
The Ms. Curtains look, Mel said, is her name for when the labia minora extend past the labia majora, sticking out either a little bit or a lot. This is actually the most common shape.
Women with the Ms. Horseshoe have a vagina that opens wider at the top but closes at the bottom, with the shape of a horseshoe.
Finally, the Ms. Tulip looks like a tulip about to bloom, with the labia minora slightly exposed up and down the labia majora.
The expert: She named this the final type, in which the labia minora are contained but exposed up and down the vagina
'Moral of the story is that every vagina is different, but it shares a sisterhood with all other vaginas, and nobody should feel strange or abnormal,' Mel said.
'Just because you haven't met your sister vagina yet, doesn’t mean she isn’t out there.
She concluded humorously: 'Your vagina is perfect. It's just like a curtain. You wouldn't hate your house if it had ugly curtains.'

With all the talk of women being shamed (opens in new tab) for their body hair, it's truly a gift when celebs actually get candid about their personal grooming rituals. Not just because we're unabashedly curious, but because we're baffled that the subject is still considered taboo. Here, we celebrate the stars who go on the record about their hair maintenance—from waxing tales to reclaiming the bush.
The star of Netflix's Glow (opens in new tab) had to contend with some seriously high cut silhouettes for her role as a wrestler in the '80s-era show, and in an interview (opens in new tab) with Entertainment Weekly, Brie noted how tough it was to keep her bikini line clean for the job: "I think during that era they must have been shaving, or were they just pushing all their pubic hair in the center? There are some nude scenes on the show and I'd say, well you'll have to put a merkin on me— that's a pubic hair wig —'cause if we see full body…I'm working with something that will look good in our costume."
Ashley Graham, forever a champion (opens in new tab) of owning your body and your choices, recently appeared in Glamour (opens in new tab) and had the best response when a reader asked the question, "Am I the only single woman with a bush?" Her answer? "Honey, I have a full bush. Period. It's about your preference and your partner's preference." Couldn't have said it better ourselves.
To promote the third year of her infamous SlutWalk (opens in new tab) , Amber Rose took to Instagram and defied its strict nudity rules with a shot of herself lounging with her bush on full display. After the post was deleted, Amber Rose called on her fans to recreate the photo with the hashtag #AmberRoseChallenge on behalf of "feminism, body positivity and not conforming to society norms of how we should live, what we should wear and where we should shave."
Along with her affinity for baths, we learned much more about Watson's head-to-toe beauty routine via an interview with Into the Gloss (opens in new tab) , specifically her love for a certain Fur oil product (opens in new tab) : "I'll use that anywhere from the ends of my hair to my eyebrows to my pubic hair. It's an amazing all-purpose product."
Celebrities, they're just like us?...turns out Ellen Page's anxiety dreams don't involve work or being chased, but pubic hair. On Conan (opens in new tab) , Page dove into her subconscious' obsession with all things pubes, saying that many dreams feature her looking down and realizing that she has a crazy amount of hair down there. As she puts it, "It might as well be an old man's beard."
Gaby Hoffman has filmed many scenes for Amazon's Transparent where her full-and-proud lady bush is on open display. After fielding questions about her choice to go unwaxed for the scenes, she very eloquently set the record straight to U.K.'s Evening Standard . She said,"I'm a human, I have hair…when people want me to talk about whether I think the bush is back, and whether that's great for feminism, I'm like, 'You know what's great for feminism? Respecting everybody's own choice.'" Amen, sister.
Seth Rogen—yes, really—went on the record on Late Night with Conan O'Brien about his pubic hair after posing for Playboy, where he joked about his fluctuations in manscaping. He said, "It's been a lifelong battle for me personally. I used to trim them and they would grow back thicker, so where I'm at now with it is I let them grow out then I put them in a bun." Trendy!
Kim Kardashian once told Allure (opens in new tab) : "I am Armenian, so of course I am obsessed with laser hair removal! Arms, bikini, legs, underarms…my entire body is hairless." Alas, her sister Khloé revealed that Kim "now says she wishes she still had a li'l something going on," during a stream on her new app.
According to Khloé Kardashian, her sister Kourtney is "large and in charge with a full '70s-style bush," and that was pretty evident during an episode of KUWTK when her then-boyfriend Scott Disick helped her groom things down there for an upcoming photo shoot.
Never one to sugarcoat things, Khloé Kardashian revealed all her thoughts about pubic hair. "I'm all about the landing strip," she explained on her app. "I like to be clean; I like to be manicured. When there's nothing there, it's weird, in my opinion—especially when you have tits and an ass. It just freaks me out a little bit. I don't like looking at an adult woman and seeing nothing down there. Whenever I'm at the spa, it just makes me uncomfortable when I see that. But then again, it also makes me uncomfortable when I see something wild and untamed."
They say a picture is worth a thousand words and we concur, especially when it comes to Miley Cyrus' now-infamous snap (opens in new tab) , in which she shows off hot pink underarm hair, as well as what appears to be a full-grown bush peeking out of her underwear. "Can't be tamed," indeed.
A similar supporter of the full bush movement was Lady Gaga, who was photographed (opens in new tab) for Candy magazine in 2013 wearing a coat and nothing much else, revealing her
