Definitions
Informal slang shorthand for labia — the folds of skin forming part of the external female genitalia. 'Labes' is a casual, slightly clinical-sounding abbreviation used in frank conversations about anatomy, sexual health, or body talk. It sits somewhere between a medical term and street slang — less crude than most alternatives, but still distinctly casual. Used increasingly in sex-positive and body-positive spaces where people talk openly about anatomy without embarrassment.
The gynaecologist spoke matter-of-factly about labes and the variety of shapes and sizes they naturally come in.

- cunt lips63%
A very crude, vulgar slang term for the labia majora — the outer folds of the female genitalia. Used almost exclusively in sexually explicit or highly offensive contexts, it has little euphemistic softening compared to other anatomical slang. The term appears in extremely coarse casual speech, adult content, and occasionally as an insult, but is rarely heard in polite or even semi-casual conversation. It's at the far end of the vulgarity spectrum even by slang standards.
