Institutional Patriarchy

There was in London a museum to women's vaginas (apparently aiming to breakdown the stigmas and taboos surrounding them) ...  

Vagina Museum - Now Closed

... which is an odd subject and aim, but given that there are other very strange museums in the world, including one to faeces, not especially so. 
 
In fact given most men's (and some women's), abiding interest in ladies bits, it could even have been a money maker, who knows. However if this news interested you, then I'm afraid it was looking like it was a bit too late as the museum, which was based in Camden North London, was forced to close after the landlords declined to renew the lease. 
 
The founder, Florence Schechter tried to find a new site, but was refused a lease by all the potential landlords she had approached ... and she was apparently baffled as to why. She told the press that it feels "really shitty", and claimed "institutional patriarchy" was at play in the decision by her landlords Lab Tech in their decision not to renew her lease  ... she has vowed to continue on line until a permanent home can be found somewhere in the capital. 
 
Vagina Museum Reopens After Search

But apparently after the long search, she has been successful in finding a physical location, as the web site indicates that they have found a new building, and have reopened at a new location in Brentford, London, on the 19th of March 2022 .... so visit away, and help "Smash The Patriarchy."
