SHAME IS MAN-MADE

In 2019, our FoundHers, Feignix Reign and Papi Sinner, began their journey as erotic artists. Papi always the shameless anarchistic, dreamed of becoming a porn star. Seeing the lack of authenticity in the industry she decided to take matters into her own hands. She pitched the idea of creating erotic films to her wife, Feignix, who was all in. The response to their content exceeded all expectations. But for them, it was never just about sharing their intimacy—it was about something bigger. As they like to say, they wanted to “pop pussy with a purpose,” and thus, Vagina Based Collective was born. Their vision was to create a space that would not only entertain but also educate, serving as a pillar for the queer community.

Our name might seem provocative, but it’s intentional. Inspired by the term “plant based,” It’s our way of honoring the beauty and importance of the vagina, reclaiming the word and making it something people feel comfortable saying. 

We are here to redefine normal—to challenge outdated ideas and make space for everyone, no matter their identity. We believe in real education, honest conversations and turning uncomfortable topics into comfortable ones.

At our core, we’re building a community where people can show up authentically and without shame. Our mantra, Shame is Man-Made, isn’t just a catchy phrase—it’s a reminder that shame was created to hold us back. The less we carry it, the more we can focus on what really matters: healthy relations and relationships, real communication, and genuine connection.

We want to break the cycle of not being told enough. Life is hard, but sharing our experiences and learning from each other makes it easier. Some struggles are unavoidable, but others? They don’t have to exist at all.
