Vagina loquens

The vagina loquens, Latin for "talking vagina", is a significant tradition in literature and art, dating back to the ancient folklore motif of the "talking cunt".[1][2] These tales usually involve vaginas talking due to the effect of magic or charms, and often admitting to their unchastity.[1] Another tradition is a vagina that acquires the power of speech to play the role of informant and reveal a history of previous lovers.[3]
