yup, you hear me right.
actually, our office finally got the chance to sponsor co-sponsor THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES by Eve Ensler. and since it was our office, not only did it entail hard work work work to do but also the chance to see the people behind the scenes.
rehearsals was the fun part. admittedly, a lot of women find it not that easy to say vagina, cunt, twat and all the other variations that comes with it. funny that many find such words bad or dirty (one of our banners had to be taken down early because a parent was concerned about her son and daughter who were grade school students..DUHHH!) and yet when you think of it, men covet it and women give it away. go figure that out.
even for the willing "Vagina Warriors", it took quite a while for them to finally come out of their shell and speak out. and when they did speak out?!?!
all i could say that it felt like what my father told me before, about the joys of being in the throng of strong and beautiful and empowered women. you should have seen my grin. =)
dont have to have an IQ of 120 to figure out that i love hearing the talk of vaginas...
of course, somehow, i cannot help but remember conversations with vaginas before...and how somehow, i have been shunned to being a mere listener while vaginas all around me talk about their woes and everything else shitty that they have endured. my conversation with vaginas before was so so so....i miss it a lot ok?
but back to the agenda. im glad i got to be part of this production. its gonna be tonight, and the next one, and im not gonna miss it...
when Vaginas talk, lowly men such like me should listen.
