The Flood


The Flood performed by Eve Ensler

My favorite Vagina Monologue entitled The Flood. Eve Ensler does it best.

People have told me that there is no need for The Vagina Monologues. My argument is that there are some women (in fact many) who very much benefit from having a forum such as The Vagina Monologues. Being that we live in a culture where vaginas are shamed and being that as humans we all have stories whether we tell them or not, I find the Vagina Monologues relevant.

If you are an owner of a vagina my guess is that you have stories surrounding your vagina. If you are an owner of a vagina you may or may not be aware of the fact that our culture sends us the message that our vaginas are for the purposes of other people and not ourselves.

The Vagina Monologues is simply an arena that offers different view points and stories. Since Ms. Ensler has performed the monologues they have been performed all over the world. Apparently there are indeed women who want to share and want to connect.
