WOMAN APPEALS TO GET A VAGINA
THE family of a woman born without a vagina has launched a crowd-funding campaign for surgery that would allow her to have sex with her boyfriend.
Kaylee Moats, from Arizona, suffers from Mayer Rokitansky Küster Hauser syndrome (MRKH) — which means she has no cervix, uterus or vaginal opening.
Her boyfriend of four months, Robbie Limmer, says he doesn’t care about the lack of sex in their relationship but has been putting aside $US50 (A$63) a month to help fund surgery that would create a vagina.
Ms Moats needs $19,000 for the surgery and the crowdfunding page set up by her sister, Amanda, has already raised $7295 in two months.
“I met Robbie in my senior year of college when I was working at the front desk. He thought I was cute so he came up to me and we started talking,” she told the Daily Mail.
“It took about a month for me to tell him that I have MRKH. He was confused at first but supportive.
“He doesn’t really focus on the sexual side of our relationship because we can’t do anything since I don’t have a vaginal opening.”
