Your walk to class just got a little saucier:
Female students from the University of Cincinnati demonstrated empowerment in a new way — with their vaginas.
Twelve poster boards displaying detailed pictures of vaginas covered McMicken Commons Thursday.
Kate Elliot, a fourth-year anthropology student, came up with the idea after seeing the pro-life organization show images of aborted fetuses on campus in May 2012.
“I wonder what the conversation would be if [these images] were vaginas,” Elliot said.
I wonder what the conversation would be if every image was a vagina.
So it’s oppressive to put up a snow penis as a joke (lookin at you, Harvard) but it’s perfectly acceptable to put up a bunch of snatch shots all over campus?
The demonstration was well received and appreciated by many for it’s unique approach to feminism.
“This is exactly what the world needs right now,” said Cynthia Nesbit, Cincinnati resident. “[It’s] better than boobs in bras in your face, we see plenty of that.”
Yes, the world. All that starving kids in Africa need are pictures of the things they regret coming out of.
According to the university’s president:
I see this exhibit and others on campus as an opportunity for us to grow as thinkers and leaders on all sides of such issues — to interrogate our assumptions, grapple with our differences, clarify our convictions and, above all, uphold our commitment to civility and collegiality.
Yes, because nothing is more civil than huge zoomed-in cooters all over campus.
