Why in the world would you put wasp nest material in your vagina? An oak gall results when wasps plant eggs in an oak tree. Here's a description from one seller on Etsy:

Oak galls, also known as oak apples, come from oak trees indigenous to Asia Minor and Persia. It is known as manjakani in Malay or majuphal in Indian. They are produced when the bark or leaves of the oak tree Quercus infectoria are penetrated by the female gallwasp, Cynips Gallae-tinctoriae, who lays its eggs inside.The spontaneous chemical reaction caused by the penetration stimulates the bark or leaves to produce a roundish hard ball called an oak gall.​

Well, oak galls caught the eye of Dr. Jen Gunter, an OB-GYN specialist who's become known as a Guardian of the Vagina, warning everyone about the latest products targeting your vagina that you really shouldn't put in your vagina. As she describes in her blog, the claims are that it can tighten your vagina, improve your sex life, "restore the elasticity of the uterine wall," clean your vagina, and improve your general health and well-being. That's a lot of claims. (They didn't say whether it can park your car as well.) How much scientific evidence is offered to support these claims? The big 0, as in zero.

The aforementioned seller on Etsy also states that oak galls have "been used as dental powder and as a treatment for toothache and gingivitis. It is a powerful astringent, the most powerful of all vegetable astringents. It can be applied topically or taken orally."

The seller offer no scientific evidence behind these claims.

Or at least check them for wasps first...

The sellers site should be shut down.
I cant believe someone would buy this
Doesn't pelvic exercises help with the tightening things up? sorry, i have even less knowledge of the vagina than the seller, but darn, i know enough not to shove wasp balls up it
 
I've only ever encountered a single oak gall in the wild, when I was a kid. My Dad knew what it was.

C'mon, whatever happened to Caveat Emptor? If all we do is protect the idiots from their own idiocy, how will they ever learn not to be idiots? I think that if someone wants to shove a wasp nest up their vagina that we as a democratic society should support their right to do so, while discouraging the practice with reasoned argument, much the way we do with joining a cult. Anyone who seriously thinks that putting a wasp nest in their snatch to tighten it up is a good idea, richly deserves their Darwin Award, and I don't want some petty nanny state law protecting them from getting their due.
 
Oak galls are hard brown things that used to be made into ink.

They are fairly hard on the outside and dry fiberous powder on the inside.

If put into....ahem!...They would be drying, hard and scratchy.

Not dissimilar to sand.

Let us not go there.

Or imagine the horror of some innocent male upon finding....It could be a wonderful way to make oneself sexually unappealing...

I remember reading that Tom Keating did some of his faked pictures with the ink made from boiled up oak galls.

You know, I agree with you, i withdraw the shutting down the seller.
 
Dr. Jen has a new book out. It's doing very well because, obviously, instruction on the care and use of vaginas is sorely needed. Seriously, no one ever tells us these things. We are left to figure them out for ourselves.

I don't know what I was expecting from this title, but despite having fewer errors and contradictions than the original, I still found it disappointing.
