It was mostly the smell, I think.

I know two simple words that would explain the demon's horror.

Downvoting for censor the word vagina. Fucking stupid.

Waaa he said the word!

It is depicting anasyrma. In some cultures that has traditionally had the power to ward of evil (for example in mine, it has had the power to protect and curse. It is called "harakointi" in Finnish).

I found a new premise for a Dresden Files book. Finally, his misogynistic powers can be used for good!

[–] Ladokaka@piefed.social 6 points 11 hours ago

Thankyou, informative and also funny "just show the cunny storm will subside i promise!"

[–] velma@sh.itjust.works 4 points 12 hours ago

Never knew there was a specific term for it! That’s interesting

[–] Ghost_Mermaid@lemmy.zip 22 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Censorship aside, some cultures believe that images of vulvas frighten away evil spirits because they're symbolic of life. So who knows? That might work.

[–] qarbone@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

"Show us yer minge, love! Need to scare off this demon!"

[–] zakobjoa@lemmy.world 58 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Vagina.

Vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina.

What the fuck is it with the censoring of words in these images? Can't "vagina" be said anymore?

[–] Manjushri@piefed.social 6 points 7 hours ago

It's a trick to drive engagement. Posts with a tame word like this censored gets posts from people who object to or are confused by the censorship. Then others start responding saying that the censorship makes sense or doesn't undermine the basic point of the post. It doesn't really matter on a site like lemmy, but on a Meta platform it increases clicks and therefore income.

Vagina.

But it looks like she's showing her vulva

Edit to add, I just noticed how tiny her feet are

[–] Septimaeus@infosec.pub 7 points 14 hours ago

Glad someone corrected this pet peeve

The word itself makes some men uncomfortable.

[–] Rothe@piefed.social 35 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (2 children)

Modern corporate internet speak is censored speech. Can't upset advertisers. The worst thing about it is that people are starting to do it on their own unprompted, being good conditioned consumers.

[–] Ertain@feddit.online 1 points 8 hours ago

Yep, I hate it.

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 5 points 13 hours ago

If this is actually a thing (and noone has proven it is) then there is no fucking way that the same penalties don't apply to "censored" content like this.

[–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 14 points 14 hours ago

Best part is this demon wouldn't even be setting her vagina. He would be seeing her vulva

[–] Marthirial@lemmy.world 3 points 10 hours ago

Ha! You fell for the bullshit censorage trick!

[–] Successful_Try543@feddit.org 22 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

It's supposed to be vulva anyways.

[–] TraipsersWill@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)
[–] Successful_Try543@feddit.org 2 points 4 hours ago

Vulva denotes the entirety of external female genitalia, this includes the labiae.

Ah, that makes sense.

[–] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 14 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

Seems like it started with a v and end with an a. With her hand at that position and the demon looking there, i'd say she scare her with her vodka. Scary stuff indeed.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

It's a vuvuzela and it's terrifying!

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 7 points 13 hours ago

Everyone forgets about violas.

[–] crimson_iris@piefed.social 10 points 14 hours ago

I ain't afraid of no man. But that thing.. it scares me.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 17 hours ago

Her minuscule feet scares me more.

[–] NickwithaC@lemmy.world 13 points 16 hours ago

Downvoted for censorship!

[–] ArmchairAce1944@lemmy.ca 1 points 9 hours ago

That's how you do it ladies!

Came here to say the same thing. What dumbass censoring

[–] HeronHouseHamilton@lemmy.zip 11 points 16 hours ago

HELP!

I've been possessed by a demon. The only way to exorcise it is to have women show me their vaginas. It's a sacrifice I'm willing to take.

[–] huppakee@lemmy.world 17 points 18 hours ago

A gay demon obviously.

and she's hung like a heathen.
