And how does referring to a vagina make the body less than a temple? That's the name for that body part. It's no different than a nose or a mouth. If the body is a temple, then the names of its body parts cannot be obscene.

You're right it probably doesn't, depending on the context. In the context of the V. Monologues, it's turned into a political weapon and official center of man hatred. IMO, not a terribly sacred nor respectful usage.

I think it's more in how the word is used. The a$$-hole is a part of the body too; the disrespectful uses of the word are myriad.

They want to call it,
"Mary's Easy-Bake Oven" --
a more sacred phrase . . .
