that would be your clitoris, it usually feels nice if you rub it gently

Okay, don't pannick!
There are the two 'lips' (labia majora - or lips bigger), under that are two smaller 'lips' (labia minora - or lips smaller). When the larger lips are open there is a mound of flesh towards the front of the body. This is the clittoris (or really the clittoris and the clittoral hood).
Hope that straightens a few things out for you. If you have any other concerns, you could go to see a health nurse, or get the book "What's Happening to Me?" There are other books about the changes that happen to the body during puberty that are good too.
:) Have a good day.

Many people have doubts about their body. The female genitals, like other parts of the body vary from person to person. Vaginas are all different shapes and sizes, so there is no one set appearance because everybody is different. Two thick folds of skin or 'lips', called labia, protect a woman's sex organs. Inside, there is another set of lips, known as the inner labia. These are thinner than the outer labia and are usually slightly different lengths. It is not unusual at all for a woman to find that the inner labia stick out below the outer labia.

If u are conscious of what ur yahoo look like then maybe u can ask ur best girl friend to show u hers or u can search online for for different types of vagina. You might be surprised that many people have the same thing as you do. Or u could go to a doctor but i think u very normal some guys might find it cute.lol
So don't be afraid of your body God made us all special.
If its ur libia then do a research on that i have done it and now I'm comfortable with what I've got. Good luck

Sounds like you are describing the clitoris. Which is exactly that, a mini penis. And where women get thier sexual pleasure from.
It is believed the first humans were hermaphrodite. Having both
male and female genitals, and the ability to impregnate them-
selves. There are humans today with both male and female
genitals. And there are humans with abnormal genitals. Where the clitoris looks like a big head of a penis.
Could be we are just designed that way so we can evolve either
into male or female.

Relax - your body is completely normal.
Everyone's parts look different, and in the case of females, both the "labia majora" (outside lips) and "labia minora" (inside lips) will vary in size, both between them and relative to others.
That little nub is the clitoris - funny you noticed that it looked like a small penis, because in a way, it is! As a developing fetus, had you posessed a "y" chromosome, that little nub would of developed into your willy! Take care of it, you'll need it later.
Ask Mom about that ;-)

It is wierd seeing something that you never look at,
you are totally normal in looks and in feeling that way. what you should do however, is take a really good look with a mirror, and spend some time naked around the house alone.
YOu need to feel comfortable with your body and know that no matter what your shape, a womans body is a beautiful thing.

You, my dear, need an anatomy lesson. There are all sorts of weird things going on below the beltline, that it seems very few people actually know about.
Here's a decent website that might have some info to help you out.

there is nothing to be worried about. What you are talking about it supposed to be there. If you are that interested in what it should look like you need to first off talk to your mother or father because it sounds like you are pretty young, then they can help you check out a book on the body and you can read up on it.

That little lady is a special area and should only be touched with caution. Touch lightly or else:) Write back for more info!

That little nub you are talking about would be your clitoris. Every woman has one. Here's a diagram for you I found:
