She’s chosen her theme for 2005: “Vagina Warriors Lead the Way” (per the latest “V-Mail”).
What, pray tell is a “Vagina Warrior”? (Please resist the urge to make one of the numerous, obvious jokes about presidential candidates and erstwhile U.S. allies.)
Well, it’s “someone who has suffered or witnessed violence, grieved it, transformed it, and then done extraordinary work to make sure it doesn’t happen to anyone else in their community ? councilors, DA.s, police officers, therapists, philanthropists, volunteers.”
I daresay they do all that out of concern for their fellow human beings, not out of concern for any one body part. I wonder how they’d react to being called “Vagina Warriors.” Ensler’s bizarre vagina fixation is making a travesty out of her cause.
