Is there really a perfect Vagina?

I am very embarrassed about my labia.  They are even, but they do hang down about an inch but kind of bunch up and flatten.  I don't like them, they are darker than my skin, they look ugly to me and they are in the way sometimes during sex or when my guys is feeling his way along down there...  When I pee (sorry fo rthe graphic picture) they sometimes cause my pee to come out at an angle and its annoying.
But...I love sex and I haven't had a guy complain yet...so they must not be that bad.  My guy understands how I feel .  He is more comcerned that I should feel comfortable with my body and if they make me feels uncomfortable- then have the surgery.  Then I started looking into it and all I see are horror stories.  I finally had the nerve to ask my gyno her opinion...like an idiot it went something like "so you're a person that sees a lot of vagina's, do you think mine looks normal?" she laughed and said i was normal...then she told me about the femal castration part and i was a little shocked.  She said that having labia surgery is the very thing we are trying to prevent being done to other women in other countries.  She said that the surgery could cause more harm than good.  So for now, I feel a little better.  
But it doesn't help that any vagina you see looks like a perfect, neat, area.  If i was a guy and I saw a "normal" vagina for the first time, I'd probably be freaked out.  I would be expecting a playboy picture and then getting a little more than i bargained for!  I guess guys don't care?  I'd be curious to hear what guys really think?

"vaginas are funny sure but they are also fun!! :) "
that should be on a t'shirt...

I've seen a few in my time and the perfect "porn vaginas" are few and far between. My wife use to have a cute little assembly down there, but time and years of good use have "broken them in". It's just something that happens eventually.
Personally, during oral, it's more enjoyable having some more texture to explore and work with.

dont worry about a thing, and i commend all the guys who said such suportive things. im in the same boat you are. its darker, flappy, makes me pee wierd sometimes dont worry!!! were all the same in that were all different...most labias hang a bit, and those tiny ones you see in porn well...to me kind of remind me of how mine was....WHEN I WAS 5! c'mon those "perfect" slits???no cusion!!! and its just another one of those media things to make us feel bad...so dont even pay attention to it. ;)

God thank you for your answers, I am in the same situation, I also talked to my gyno, told me it was fine, but of course I figure she was only saying it to be nice, I've search the internet for answers and all I get is porn pictures and of course they all are pretty, small, and pink!  I do not want to ask my husband since he will probable tell me what I want to hear. Thank you again for your responses and putting my my mind at ease!

As a man the answer is yes there is, usually the one you are inside. Really ladies forget all this stuff about big labia and a problem.

If a man is so stupid and insensitive even to comment he should have his sack trimmed a little as a punishment.

Guys love big lips,  If  they dont they have the problem not the lady. Some woman have big labia and I wish more did. What can I say

As with all areas of the female anatomy, different men have different tastes!  Personally, I prefer larger labia - in fact my wife has a Brazilian waxing so they look even more prominent.  Really, honestly, there's nothing for you to worry about here, certainly as far as aesthetics are concerned.

as a man i prefer a natural woman.and a larger labia is actually nice.cutting off part of your labia would be the same as a guy getting circumcised because he thinks all of the penises he sees are "normal".i think what you see on tv or in books is selected solely by someone who chooses them based on what they like.the same goes for breast implants.i do not like them.small is better than fake.but if you were to look through an adult magazine or movie you would think all women had implants.they don't and should not feel strange because someone that makes these movies or magazines prefers them.all vaginas/penises/breasts are different and you should keep what you have because it is yours and unique like you are and someone definitely would prefer you the way you are now.your vagina is already perfect.
