One labia minors is different than the other??

[anonymousname1]

This is an odd question, but please tell me what is going on! I have realized that my left labia minora (the inside lips) is different than my right. It is longer and able to stretch when I pull on it. My right one is small and "tighter." It does not stretch much and not nearly like my left one. In fact, my left one is easier to grip and see. I have a hard time finding my right labia minora. I have to move my left one and really look for it. When not looking down there and pulling from straight in the middle of my vagina, I grab on to the left one with no problem. I can't even really grab the right one unless I look for it! Also, the left one is very thin. This is odd, but I almost feel like I could cut it with regular scissors like paper or something. It is so thin and long and stretchy. More so than my right one. Is this totally weird? Do I need surgery?

No, you don't need surgery.  Look up Dr. Betty Dodson's genital gallery if you would like to see the varieties of normal that labial lips come in.  Some look like woodland mushrooms, some like lettuce, some like the ears of a Siamese cat.  I especially hope you don't take your cues about what labia should look like from porn; often those women have had their normal labia cut off in order to look more like little girls, so the pervy men watching the porn can get excited about having sex with very young females.  If you think the thinness of the one side is an issue, ask your ob-gyn about it next time you are in for an exam.  In the meantime please don't worry.
