In my culture, rhombus is the basis of a vagina pictogram. In my culture, rhombus is every schoolboy's favorite shape.

Pica in brazilian Portuguese means dick.

That's actually amazing I love that just a diamond with a line in the middle is shorthand for vagina, it's so universal too I bet if you showed that to any human they'd eventually guess the meaning.

Traditionally you can also draw hair/rays around.

Western civilization seems obsessed with cocks, we need to draw more vulvas. I'm doing my part.

This is amazing and thank you for sharing. The ability of the human race to come up with different yet universally understood yonic symbols is heartening. Like no matter what place or time, we're all in this together and we will be drawing genitalia.

Hell my dude there's a cave people deliberately carved to look like a vag and it's incredibly detailed.

Humans just seem to love genitals to an alarming but understandable degree

Researchers believe that the entrance to the cave was a slit, which was then widened by humans.

😏

It is impossible to be mature about this.
