@129440: i am PLENTY EDUCATED, i'll have you know, and my reasoning was sound ...as a woman, i am deeply saddened that you would have such an ignorant reaction ...and if you ever had a bartholin's gland abcess - which i don't wish on, not even YOU - you would soon know desperation to try ANYthing that might hope to help other than getting your privates SLICED without anesthesia. sad, very sad.
