    The Vagina Monologues at first glance appears to be a racy subject, but in reality it’s not.
    The Vagina Monologues is an award-winning play by Eve Ensler. It is part of a national campaign to eradicate sexual violence against women, and it uses Valentine’s Day as a day to celebrate women.

    The Vagina Monologues was first performed by the writer as an off-Broadway play. The play is broken into differing monologues with unusual titles, such as “I was 12. My Mother Slapped Me.”, “My Angry Vagina”, and “Because He Liked To Look At It”. Each monologue draws on interviews with women, and range from funny to painful to newfound wisdom.

    Each tells a story of compassion, humour, integrity and the strength of women. The stories include growing up, life during wartime, different ethnicities, different ages and different sexual orientations.There is no background stage, only the performer giving the monologue. There is nothing to distract from the message from each tale. Reviews generally deem the play “funny and poignant”.

    Now maybe it’s just me, but was the real interest in the title and nothing else that inherently added up to the acclaim. A good role to have had on your resume.

    Or am I just being a ku/nt ?

    A couple of well-formulated responses would do this thread no harm at all.

    Why exactly should the organ in question need to wear diamonds ? Is it really a flower, flower ? One would have thought that any sensible mature woman would be above anthropomorphisising her genitalia, unless she secretly wished to act like the crassest of blokes who would be routinely laughed at.

    The Bosnian rape tale is of course quite harrowing; the rest seems to be targeted at young dykes in need of some desperate self-affirmation, or college girls in the flush of intellectual rebellion, and I can’t see any difference between this and those abject calls of ‘girl-power’ by the Spice Girls.

    So, as it’s only a play and not the release of the new Jimmy Choo range, perhaps someone suitably empowered can answer. Go on ! After all, the whole experience made you a force to be reckoned with, and it is wearing pearls now . . . . . . . .
