Artificial Hymen



Artificial hymens can be purchased over the internet starting from $29.99
The hymen is placed in the vagina and must properly adhere to the vaginal walls. When pressure is placed on the hymen, it will release a red liquid that looks like blood.


Because there are still a lot cultures that believe that a woman must be pure before marriage, young women who have been sexual active before marriage are forced to buy this hymen as to not be shamed by society.


Middle Eastern women are highly know for purchases these hymen and many at times the hymen goes on sale for as low as $15. Although it is considered a a cardinal sin to deceive your  husband, they go to this extreme as to avoid social stigma.


Because of the deceptive nature of the hymen, it has been banned and pronounced illegal in many states and countries.


Purchasing this hymen also saves women a huge amount of money compared to the medical surgeries that are done to replace the hymen.



I am not a fan of deceiving because I would not like to be deceived. Hopefully with time artificial hymen will no longer be in existence

  1. This blows my mind...and I think it's rather sexist. It would only exist in a patriarchy society where women, at least some, feel obligated to please the opposite sex.

  2. It is mind-boggling that women would go to this extent for a man. These hymen should be illegal because it can affect a woman's health and well-being.

  3. WOW! I never knew such product existed! This is a prime example of how we are so influenced by society's norms! A woman shouldn't have to take such extreme measures to be acceptable by her community or future partner. Its such a health risk!

  5. OMG! I had no idea. This is so crazy, and a little scary to me. I'm so glad we don't deal with this in our society, but it's definitely important to know what goes on in the rest of the world where people don't have the same luxuries as us.
