If you plated your girlfriends vag and really isolated a single yeast colony (sans the other funky bunch), and grew up a starter, and brewed a beer with it - would you drink it? Would your friends drink it, if you told them where the strain came from?
I personally wouldn't have a problem tasting it, if it was isolated in this manner. Just another wild yeast. I doubt it would taste like beer, though.
I think that the vast majority of people think that they would get some other microbiota in there. There's a huge difference between isolating a wild yeast and having some skank dip their meat curtains in your beer.

The vaginal yeast is called Called candida. Have you ever smelled a yeast infection? There is a very, very, very good reason why no one would ever make Candida beer. I guarantee you, no one would want to make a beer that smells literally like shit or like week-old fish.

You ever brewed a lager? Smells absolutely awful while fermenting. I don't know if it's fair to say that just because the yeast smells bad, the beer will. Plus you're talking about a yeast infection. Normally, I like me the smell of a healthy vajayjay.
