can you absolutely fucking imagine living like this? babe can you please stop posting about my pussy microbiome on twitter
Bryan Johnson & @bryan_johnson •1d Just gave Kate oral sex. Goodnight everyone. Bryan Johnson @bryan_johnson 1d This is her vaginal microbiome report. 100/100 score. Top 1% of all vaginas. Her sample is dominated by the single most protective bacterial species a vagina can host (Lactobacillus crispatus). Only about 25-30% of reproductive age women globally are L. crispatus-dominant,
