Review: Amusing but anatomically incorrect

I enjoyed this Kindles Single and found it, while not laugh-out-loud funny, at least pretty entertaining. But I do have one objection, and in making this objection, I am aware that I sound like the kind of nit-picky critic that I usually roll my eyes at.  But this author makes a mistake common to many people, and that is to use the word "vagina" incorrectly.  She repeatedly talks about her pubic hair and refers to the hairy area as her vagina.  Ladies...if you have a hairy vagina, you indeed have a problem.  The vagina is an internal structure, a tube that is pretty much hidden from public view. The alternate term "birth canal" should tip one off as to its function and location.  The part that grows hair is the vulva, and this seems to be a hard concept to grasp, including for the folks who give us "The Vagina Monologues."  This incorrect use of the word vagina is very annoying.  You have female authors throwing these terms around all over the place, patting themselves on the back that they are all empowering and full of female wisdom, and they can't even sit down and get the terms straight for their own body parts. Get a clue, ladies!!  If you want to talk about it, learn the correct name for it!
