Remember all the "Hoohah" about The Vagina Monologues being displayed on a Florida theatre's marquee? Well, there's another attention ***** -- this time it's a guy -- who has decided to make an ass out of himself over it.
“I objected to the V-word on the marquee,†Roberts said. “I consider it vulgar and in bad taste.â€
This guy resigned from the theatre's board because they would not entertain his motion to remove the title from the marquee.
More from the article:
Here's a link to the entire story. The board's chairman is named Kenny Rambo. I'm sure there's a First Blood/Vagina Monologues joke to be made, but I'll let someone else do it for now.
Before I step down from the soapbox, let me say this. If you find the correct term for a human body part to be "vulgar" or "offensive" then you should lose the right to ever use said part or touch another person's said part. Ever. No exceptions.

Roberts has not seen or read the play, he said, but has heard about it. He said he doesn’t have enough information to condemn the play itself, but said his issue was the display.
Several community members have told Roberts they were upset about the word, including parents who don’t want to have to explain the word to their children, teenagers who didn’t like seeing the word and others who simply were “outraged,†Roberts said.
The word is an equal-opportunity offender for kids, teenagers, adults and senior citizens, Roberts said.
