Examine? Why would you? No, I don't think it is OK. If she wonder what it is, you should tell her, or show her from books. It is healthy to be naked among children, to a certain extent,but there is a limit.

How old is your daughter? if she is a little girl, 2, 3, 4 years old. I would think it would be OK for you to show her your vagina at an appropriate time but I don't know if she needs to touch it. If she is
a toddler, she is just trying to learn about her body and she needs to know that her vagina is normal and that it is nothing to be ashamed of. At that time you can talk to her about keeping her private parts private and not letting anyone see them except her parents and the doctor. If you have been helping wash her in the bath and teaching her how to wash her vagina she might think something is wrong if you seem embarrassed to let her see yours.
All of this presupposes that she asked to see it. If not. Don't worry about it. But you should definitely teach her about her vagina at the level of understanding that she is at.
Another thing is what do you mean that she caught you coming out of the shower? Why don't you take showers with her sometimes so she can do things just like mommy? Fathers need to do this with their sons when when the boy gets old enough. that way the children have a natural opportunity to ask their same sex parent, "What's that daddy?" or, "What's that Mommy?". What I mean by old enough is that they can walk well enough so that they won't fall over and that they can bend over without falling over.
I hope this helps.

I am sure this will be highly contriversal but here goes.
Yes. You should let your daughter view your vagina.
America is so sexually uptight that they are affraid to speak of sex and sexuality to thier children. That is why AIDS is running rampant, tennage pregnancy is allways a problem and there seems to be no virgens in America past 10 years old now.
YES. Definatly let her examine it.
Show her how to satisfy herself so she wont be sexually frustrated and get pregnant early in life.
Speak openly of sex and the joys of love.

Gross! You can talk to her about your pubic hair, but that's it. No touching.
When she's old enough to ask questions, she can watch this video of the Walt Disney movie called The Story of Menstruation.

Absolutely not. Get some books from the library and talk to her about the human body.

She has to learn about these things, and I'm sure you would rather have her learn them from you.
