NY Girls Suspended For Saying Vagina

Cross River, NY (AHN) - Three teens at a public New York school were suspended after saying the word "vagina" during a public reading of the "Vagina Monologues."

School administrators at John Jay High School in Cross River, who are being criticized and accused of censorship, said the girls are being punished because they disobeyed the agreement that they would not read the word.

Parents, students and author of the off-Broadway play, Eve Ensler, said the school has no right to punish the girls.

Ensler said, "The school's position is absurd, a throwback to the Dark Ages. So what, if children were to hear the word? Would that be terrible? We're not talking about plutonium here, or acid rain, a word that destroys lives. It's a body part!"

She added that the girls should be applauded for not conforming. Ensler said, "Don't we want our children to resist authority when it's not appropriate and wise?"

Students, Megan Reback, Elan Stahl and Hannah Levinson, did their reading Friday night at an event sponsored by the school's literary magazine. At the end, when they got to the part that reads, "vagina", they all said the word at the same time.

Reback said, "It wasn't crude and it wasn't inappropriate and it was very real and very pure."

But administrators argued that the girls should not have agreed to skip the word if they were not planning on following through. Bob Lichtenfeld, superintendent of the Katonah-Lewisboro school district, said it would have been a different story if the girls would have asked to perform the play because attendees would have known what they were attending.

He said, "As long as the intended audience knows what to expect, we don't have a problem with it."

Well, they should not have agreed to skip it I agree with. This happened at a college valedictorian speech a year or two ago when the girl agreed to remove parts of her speech about god and other religious language, then she said it anyway and caused a huge stink. The issue is that the school was then accused of censorship, when it was a matter of an agreement. God girl was a huge fat liar who wanted to use the podium to preach, plain and simple. Not the schools fault.

But of course there's no harm in the word. They should have agreed not to say vagina and then substituted pussy.

that was insane!..

If you agree to self-censorship, then you won't be censored...

How Orwellian is that?

If I was a part of the group, when we reached the word "vagina", we would have shouted "pussy"!!!

starpimps 03-07-2007 01:47 PM

suspended is better than stoned to death or lashed like some caves around the world...

TheLegacy 03-07-2007 02:22 PM

at least she didnt say it was a 'ni**ers' black vagina

SomeCreep 03-07-2007 02:24 PM

"Vagina" is a very vulgar profane word. All kids who use that word in school should be suspended for 1 week.

The thing is, if the girls had not agreed to not say the word, they would have lost their parts at the reading, and we all know it.

lelahosting 03-07-2007 02:26 PM

that is stupid

i don't think they should have agreed but still i think the agreement should be null and void.

Elli 03-07-2007 02:29 PM

That's ridiculous. Kids are taught the proper words for things in the early grades. Then they're taught that they're no longer allowed to call them by their proper names? What bs.

"This is a vagina. But don't say that in front of your mom. She's delicate. Call it your "dirty place" instead."

I don't read all the release notes for my updates, but I'd kinda think this is something that an update from Bill&Company would handle if it hasn't been handled already.

if i walked up to your woman, in the mall, touched her vagina, then asked her what time it was... you wouldn't see that any different than if i touched her arm before asking the time?

Sweet.
