Giant-sized photos of female genitalia are coming to the University of Cincinnati this week.
On Wednesday (March 6th), the University of Cincinnati Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer Alliance and the UC Feminists will host a panel lead by Planned Parenthood. On Thursday they will host an art display called Re-envisioning the Female Body (WARNING: graphic) featuring 12 billboard-sized images of female genitalia on campus.
The group says the obscene display comes in response to a recent appearance of the pro-life Genocide Awareness Project (GAP) on campus. GAP uses graphic photos of aborted babies to compare abortion and other past genocides.
But according to the pro-abortion group, the pro-life display is part of an effort to shame women, comparing reproductive choice to holocaust."
"Our demonstration serves to call attention to the vagina as a site of conflict in medical, legislative, domestic, and representational arenas," they said in a statement. "Its purpose is to incite conversation about the objectification, exploitation, and discrimination of womens bodies in advertising, health care, reproductive rights, and queer identities.
Annmarie Condit, President of UC Students for Life, the group that brought Genocide Awareness Project and Created Equals Justice Ride to campus, will be outside the Planned Parenthood panel preceding the gallery of genitalia passing out flyers informing students about what the pro-life group says is Planned Parenthoods corrupt business practices.
Condit said, The UC Students for Life are deeply saddened by this response to our use of abortion pictures on campus. The abortion pictures, while shocking and offensive, display the truth about the humanity of the babies killed by abortion. Using objectifying images of women with the claim that it makes a political or artistic statement is an utter non-response to the important issue of abortion; its nothing but the depraved use of obscenity for shock value. This display is an embarrassment to the students who are organizing it, and to the university as a whole.
Of course Planned Parenthood would be involved in this kind of immature campus event," said Students for Life of America President Kristan Hawkins. "They stand to make money off of the promotion of sex, as they sell the 'have sex, there are no-consequences' line.
"Fifty percent of people who are sexually active will get an STD by age 25, and one in four of all college age students have an STD. Planned Parenthood isnt an educational group, its an industry. It sells contraception, abortions, and STD treatment and makes over $300,000 million each year in profit while STD rates rise.
Forty-six percent of abortions are performed on college-aged women, so its no wonder why the local Planned Parenthood is less than a mile from UCs campus. They want to be close to their targeted customers, and this event will only help market their lies. What these displays should be showing is a vagina with genital warts or a dead preborn baby being ripped from it as that is what Planned Parenthood sells.
Im proud of UC SFL for standing up for Life and showing their campus the truth behind Planned Parenthood and abortion.
Democrats and abortion supporters have increasingly claimed the Republican Partys pro-life position is an attack on womens genitals.
Recent pro-abortion protests have featured women dressed up as giant vaginas, and Michigan legislators giving a public reading of The Vagina Monologues.
In a separate incident, legislators danced on the steps of the Michigan legislature while singing, Its My Vagina, So Hands Off Baby.
During the recent presidential campaign, the official Obama tumblr account posted an e-card urging women to vote like your lady parts depend upon it.
Yeah because all men actually get their hands on their woman’s uterus.
Apparently the tv doctor stuff did not rub off on her at all.
I wasn’t in that discussion, I would sure be a fan of Marilyn’s figure.
In a world filled with dudes that think Paris Hilton was ‘hot’ , you and I have become exceptions to the rule.
Marilyn Monroe was very beautiful ... and her figure, what, basically a size 8, but rather more busty? What’s not to like, (strictly aesthetically of course in my case)?
I find on FR many posters whose ideal *female* body approximates that of my 18-year-old son when he’s been working out to flaunt at the pool. And they way they talk about women who are mothers (”fat pig” would be nicer), it’s reasonable to suggest that a man’s or boy’s body is really what they’d prefer, all around. If you know what I mean ...
I do indeed. It just goes to show how strong a force propaganda/TV really is. Because there is nothing ‘’natural’ about guys being that ‘confused’.
???what??? Sandra Fluke's brains??
I’m sure Laz is packin his bags already so as not to miss a thing.
Don’t forget to swing through Beaver, Ohio, on the way.
Looks like a walking yeast infection to me.
4 piercings in her right ear, fat and a hollywierder,, I’ll give 10:1 odds she’s a thespian.
worked in a hospital 10 years and find neither male or female genitals especially artistic or lovely....these females are nutty as a fruit cake...glad most of us keep them covered....
Always the common-sense observation!
When you’ve changed as many diapers as I have ... *shrug*. Show me a man in a classy suit, or a uniform!
UC: and you thought that the “C” stood for Cincinnati. Go Bare C***ts!
LOL you said a mouthful of truth...thats why I laugh like crazy when some nitwit male emails his boys to some female thinking she will swoon.. GG
I think it’s an example of the confusion of our times: homosexual men are interested in seeing their “junk,” so they imagine women are, too.
LOL They are wrong on that and everything else also...
