It sickens me to think that there are so many people out there that would support banning The Vagina Monologues. Have you seen them? Have you bothered to look more deeply into a topic that you're so ready to condone?
The Vagina Monologues are not a staged performance of low-grade pornography, or sinful behavior, they are stories of women who have triumphed over the worst odds, survived countess horrors, and courageously continue to live their lives despite they many setbacks they've encountered. They are about women who can feel comfortable with who they are, who radiate spirituality and faith. Each member of every audience that goes to see them leaves the room with a renewed sense of spirituality that can only be achieve by the utmost inspiration, gained from the amazing stories of these women.
My high school produced a version of The Vagina Monologues, and I have to tell you, I'm so proud of them for it. The sense of strength it gave the women in the production was amazing. I've never seen anything like it.
By turning away from this production for "moral" reasons, without really learning about it, you have self-censored one of the most revolutionary and positive productions for women that I've ever seen. We need to take pride in our bodies, just the way God made them. We need to learn to love ourselves, just as He does. If God did not want us to celebrate our uniqueness, every piece, every inch of ourselves, He would not have made individuals, with different hearts, hands, feet, VAGINAS.
So, before turning from this powerful display of female strength, a testament to God's amazing presence on earth, take a chance to see it, learn more about it, experience its power.
Brand new to FR, huh?
Believe me, we know why it is an atrocity that Catholic University students are being FORCED AGINAST THEIR WILL with NO RECOURSE to watch this play. That anyone feels empowered by it, is truly sad. Not that they were empowered, but that their spirituality is so depraved that such depravity can elevate them.
Rule #1 around FR: Never presume ignorance on the part of critics. People around here know what they are commenting on.
Which glorifies the lesbian molestation of a young teenage girl. (Just wanted to make sure you presented all of the facts.)
You're 100% on the wrong website, sweetie. And you need to look up the definition of the word "condone," because you're not using right. That's probably not all you're not using right.
