The inner labia help to protect the vaginal opening and urethral opening - the vaginal opening and urethral opening are within the vestibule, the vestibule is within the inner labia, the inner labia are within the outer labia, and your vulva is safely nestled between your legs.
Imagine the female genitals like a Matryoshka doll, with the vaginal opening safely within the vulva, and then further from that all this protection works to keep your reproductive organs healthy.
The inner labia aren't just about protection though, they are also about pleasure too - when aroused they become engorged and more sensitive to stimulation, so during masturbation and sex stimulating the inner labia increase arousal for pleasure.

Is a cameltoe more plesurable for a woman in sex or a normal vagina?
HUH?? ----- A cameltoe is the collogial name for the look of a womans private parts if she is wearing very tight jeans or something similar. If I understand your question correctly you are referring to her labia - and whether or not it is better to have small inner labia or large. Large inner labia is normal and so is small inner labia. It stands to reason that if you try and force your way in without proper lubrication, then you will pull larger labia in with the penis head and this can be uncomfortable or painful. But that is not because of the larger labia but because of an inconsiderate lover.
