As if being rich and trashy weren't already enough work, now there's vajazzling, too. (NSFW)
A little NSFW warning goes a long way.
Also, can somebody let me know when people stop using "vagina" as synonymous with "vulva" (or in this case, "general groin region"). Thanks.

Quoted for FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS GOOD AND HOLY YES.
I was going to bitch about people who even usually are sticklers for anatomy and accuracy who still seem to have forgotten the world "vulva" and then somehow lead into a "slippery slope" reference, but gee, I wouldn't want to be vulgar...

No, I'm pretty sure a third-grader could do that with aplomb. The difference is that third graders usually have the sense to keep the glue stick off of their genitals.

Monsazzling would be a more appropriate term. There is something about people misusing the medical term - if you are going to use the colloquial meaning of vagina, you could just use one of the colloquial synonyms, it isn't like there is a shortage or something. Cuntazzling or Hoohazzling anyone? Pussynalize your twizzat!

What do you do when a conventionally attractive woman wearing a miniskirt, sitting a foot or so from you announces she has affixed jewels to her groin? Do you imagine what it looks like? Do you sneak a look at her crotch, and if you do, is it allowed in this case? Or do you blank out the image in your mind? Hewitt is actually inviting you to visualize her crotch. It breaks a few rules and is a little unsettling.

The history of the practice is actually quite fascinating; many mistake the name as a play on words but in fact the term is originally Scandinavian, named after Vidkun Vajasling, the notorious WWII collaborator.

Goodness knows I've put in and taken out piercings for the sake of a lover.
I think a penis bedecked with edible make up might be more my speed, but honestly I will try anything twice. Some things I'll try over and over.
So put me down as one vote for 'this is fun and sexy and goofy and doesn't weird me out at all'.

Far from gormless-- I was thinking the same thing.
I wonder if, when you go in to have this done, you can ask for a particular grit size?
Because sometimes you're in a delicate mood-- like maybe you only want to do a minor touch-up on an already-finished surface. But every now and again you wake up and you're like, "Well hell, might as well get the rust off that goddamn propane tank today."

Are Swarovski crystals even jewels? As far as I can tell they are high-priced cut glass. Wikipedia seems to tell me that jewels have to be gemstones, and glass is not a gemstone. Or did I just misunderstand since I'm not a native English speaker? I'm just trying to figure out the exact amount of tacky they're going for here...

It's awful. So you probably hated it. They didn't even use the awesome Mekons song, and I know it wasn't a copyright thing because the Mekons don't fucking roll that way - they would've given their permission in a heartbeat. So first I was let down because I didn't get to listen to the Mekons, then I continued to be let down by the relentlessly cool steampunk vibe and lack of anything really interesting going on. Ah well. I'm a curmudgeon.

That looks to me like it would be quite uncomfortable during sex (unless you prefer your partner's pubis to be 80 grit, I suppose). But practicalities aside, and my intense dislike of the term "va-jay-jay" and all its derivatives aside as well, I'm all for people having more ways to decorate their bodies and have fun.
This strikes me as being more like body paint, makeup, or costume jewelry -- things that are fun and pretty, without any permanence or much cost. If I found the stick-on "jewels" for sale cheap, I'd absolutely buy them and have a fun afternoon making pretty patterns on my partner. Decoration and costumes are fun.

It occurs to me that some women might do this to provide an alternative form of cover-up now that fur is no longer in fashion. The first time I got a look at myself after going completely bare, I know I was taken aback. If a patch of crotch glitter had been available to me at that moment, I might have slapped it on to replace my lost badge of sexual maturity.

You know, if I ever found myself in any kind of intimate situation with Jennifer Love Hewitt, and on sliding my hand into her underwear encountered Swarovski crystals, the first thing I would think is "what the fuck is this?"
The second thing I would think is "how the hell did I find myself in an intimate situation with Jennifer Love Hewitt?"
Also, aren't Swarovski crystals lead-based? Is that really the kind of thing you want adorning your vulva?

here's some answers:
it feels quite kinky actually, it's not grit-like at all, the profile is not high enough for them to rub in anything other than an interesting way against my partner's parts.
For fun.
No there is no stubble/gltizy bits because they tend to wash off over about a week in the shower, before the stubble comes in.
Since they individually are so tiny, on the odd occasion they've come off on my smalls but they've never "fell out of" my trousers!!
IANA a pro, I'm certainly not cheap, and I'm only trashy when I try really, really hard.
And while not in the least surprised at the kinds of comment above I can't believe this is news, I first had it done in good old Dublin 5 years ago. I don't believe it's recent to NYC.
I no longer do it as the daughter's College fees take every spare penny and the kinds of parties where it was a good idea have had to be rationed also.

I do have to agree with several other straight up members (snicker) however. The vajayjay is already a sacred grove of wonder and happenis (rofl).
As I get older I care less and less about making the lady-part into some sort of perfect thing. Surgery to fix excess labia, sparkling pubis, artistically trimmed pubic hair, assbleaching or whatever. It's all a waste of time. As a straight male who is sexually active, I'm pretty much all set to be going there anyway. Adding runway lights or a neon all-you-can-eat sign is going to make no difference to me whatsoever. Believe me, there really isn't a place I'd rather be*.

But with that said, I gotta second those who are saying "Who gives a shit what other people do with their junk?" I'd be delighted by this if I were to discover it on my lover -- it strikes me as just a one-off fun and crazy thing to do. I would never, however, tell anyone they should do it or make it seem as though I expect it to be done.
We only wear these shells once, and they're the only thing we truly own in this world (notwithstanding centuries of effort in some parts of the world to deny people -- particularly women -- ownership of their bodies.) So bling em out; paint them; ink them; pierce them; ne'er brandish scissors or blade against any hair; or stay smooth as a piece of quartz all over. Who cares? As long as it's your choice, have fun with it.

Yeah, I dunno that Bryce Gruber is reaching for Edward R. Murrow status here.
I don't know that I said this right above, but basically my initial thought was that this must cost an exorbitant amount of money, and was therefore sort of Caligula and gaudy. My initial thought was formed when I read, with no little interest, Jennifer Love Hewitt's comments in an article I saw a couple of weeks ago. But looking at it, this really seems to be costume jewelry, not a lot different from getting a henna tattoo or something, and I just don't see what the big deal is. It doesn't seem especially trashy, could be kinda cute (if one were so inclined!), though I'm not sure why you would want a sparkly approximation of pubic hair when, well, you could just have pubic hair. It's free!

First thought: New Marvel Comics movie franchise opportunity!
Second thought: Damn, Disney bought Marvel. No chance now.
