You turned up as a vagina.

I turned up as a vagina and Wonder Woman.

Yes, yes, that's correct.

Can you give a flavour to the listeners about your little smear test?

And the unnecessary embarrassment.

But, you know, I hear that all the time.

Doctors will say that women are always apologising for the state of their bits when they're going for their, you know, I haven't shaved my legs or I haven't shaved my vulva as it might, you know, the case might be.

I haven't painted my toenails.

The doctors don't care.

But they also say like men are never apologising for their bits.

Is that an Irish thing, though, as well?

And I mean, I'm looking at it... And years ago, back in the Stone Age times, it mustn't have been considered unattractive for a woman to have had hairy legs.

Do you know what, actually?

I think it started... I actually listened to a podcast on this.

I actually think the whole hair shaving started because it was some razor company and they were like, how can we make more money because we're, you know, we are... Men obviously shave.

Why don't we start making... Telling women to shave.

Telling women to shave or have...

I think it was to do... And then we make the razor pink and we can charge more for the razor then than we do for the men's razors.

I think it may have been to do with that.

And I know maybe back in Cleopatra times, wasn't she known to have bathed in milk and used thread and stuff?
