Thread Name: BS: Women in their 'Proper Place'
Subject: RE: BS: Women in their 'Proper Place'
Amos---"The Vagina Monologues" is a play by Eve Ensler; over the course of several years, she interviewed women of a variety of ages, backgrounds, ethnicity, sexual orientation, etc., about how they thought/felt/experienced/were affected by their identities as women, specifically in terms of their vaginas, which I hardly need mention is a subject far more taboo in western culture than penises! As one line from the play puts it "it's like the Bermuda Triangle: no-one ever reports back from there"!

It's a hilariously funny, thought-provoking & moving piece; check out the web-site at:
