"What the author of the V-Monologues play intended was to destory any sense of modesty. That's why some people chose not to repeat the title, not to play into their feminist game."

Well, there ya go, then. My momma taught me to call body parts by the names used by doctors. Nothing immodest about vaginas. Over half the population has a vagina. It's a body part.

Calling things by their correct names is not a feminist ploy. It is simply calling them by their correct names. The euphemistic use of asterisks, OTOH, actually DOES play into the hands of the feminists.

True. But a play called "The Vagina Monologues" is.
