Vaginal flatulence

Vaginal flatulence (also known colloquially as a queef) is an emission or expulsion of air from the vagina that may occur during or after sexual intercourse or during other sexual acts, stretching or exercise. The sound is somewhat comparable to flatulence from the rectum, but does not involve waste gases, and thus often does not have a specific odor associated.

Pronunciation

• IPA: /ˈvædʒɪnəl ˈflætʃʊləns/
• Rhymes: -ædʒɪnəl, -flætʃʊləns

Etymology
