Zoe Mendelson, Maria Conejo, and Michael Yap
created Pussypedia , a free, bilingual, inclusive encyclopedia that delves into female anatomy, sexuality, and health .
According to its website, the website “aims to address the lack of quality, accessible information about our bodies on the internet. Pussypedia is a community-sourced project: the product of people all over the world working together. It is a platform meant to facilitate our ability to collectively generate high quality, accessible information.”
Pussypedia
offers articles about anything: puberty, the clitoris, menstruation, trans health, and reproductive rights . It also offers a 3D interactive model to better understand the female body and how it works.
Why is Pussypedia so important?
Because this type of information is rarely available for girls and women or it is limited to cisgender women. Also, since it is a digital platform , it can reach a wider audience, anywhere in the world.
Moreover, Pussypedia offers a lot of reliable information for trans, non-binary, and intersex people .
Who is behind Pussypedia?
Over 200 people collaborated to make Pussypedia a reality.
You can support Pussypedia through donations or by purchasing products on Pussypedia's online store here .
