Place the clean genitalia into a small petri dish with 100% ethanol. Flatten the genitalia under a small piece of glass (a broken
microscope slide will work). The ethanol dehydrates and stiffens the genitalia so that it retains this position when placed on the
microscope slide. Be careful to not smash or heavily distort the papillae anales. Although female genitalia is much easier to
position than male genitalia, it is important to work quickly as the genitalia will begin to stiffen in a short period of time.
