Supurbia
by Ann Thrope
Pudenda, a once-common euphemism for the female genitalia, comes from a Latin word that means (roughly) “shame.” But times—and terms—have changed. (Aren’t we all glad we don’t have to ask our lovers to “touch my pudenda?” Talk about a mood-killer.) Personally, I don’t have a lot of shame when it comes to my genitalia, which is why I named this merkin Superbia—Latin for “pride.” It says, “Hey, I might be covering it up, but I sure as hell ain’t ashamed!”
Other materials:
Small piece of cotton fabric (approx. 8”/20cm square)
Sewing thread and needle
Tapestry needle (for weaving in ends)
Sharp scissors
Marker
Pins, straight or safety (optional)
