It is normal. Not worrisome.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
I have seen the image attached. The fleshy skin that you have noticed is a hymenal flap or just a skin tag. It is a normal finding. There is no need to worry. This is not suggestive of any abnormality.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
