Abstract
Discussion about the increasing incidence of labiaplasty has given rise to the widely accepted theory that pornography consumption is the primary driver of this trend. No previous research has attempted to investigate the usefulness of this thesis in predicting genital dissatisfaction or openness to labiaplasty. Our study surveyed women, online and anonymously. There were 1083 participants from 25 countries (majority Australian). We found that women were largely satisfied with the appearance of their vulvas, and generally were not open to labiaplasty. We also found that while pornography was associated with openness to labiaplasty, it was not a predictor of genital satisfaction, casting doubt on a linear framework that positions pornography as the main driver for female genital cosmetic surgery. We concluded that the model is incomplete and that there are additional predictors that must be included in future models.
