The Vagina Monologues

                                                             In class, we watched a short clip from The Vagina Monolgues. I must say that I wasn't overly thrilled with the way that she represented women. I found her point of view to be very extremist, and she did her absolute best to make it seem like we, as women, have it so rough. She did bring up some valid points, but for the most part she pretty much made my head throb. I think that it would have been interesting to have heard from woman that had a less extreme feminist frame of mind. Her monologue is called My Angry Vagina, and she goes on to complain about "things that people want to put up there". I think that women all have the choice to do what they want with their girly parts, and if they want to try out new trends, or what have you, then it is thier right to do so. However I do agree with the whole bit about the visit to the gynocologist, and how there could be some improvements to the process of the examination! That aside from that, the point that I'm trying to make with this is that although there are certainly things that we as women have to deal with on a daily basis, that we might not be that thrilled about, our lives aren't that bad, and I think that some women should just take a deep breath and accept that not everything in life is perfect.
