`Vagina' forum makes headway

[dArKeR]

What does the word "vagina" mean to you? Dirty? Shameful? How about charming and beautiful? A forum held yesterday to celebrate the successful debut of an internationally acclaimed play invited people to end violence against women, by loving and respecting a woman's vagina.

Celebrating the successful debut of The Vagina Monologues, Eve Ensler's award-winning play was performed in theaters and on university campuses last month.

The Garden of Hope Foundation and Zonta International held a forum called "Vagina, Valentine, Violence" yesterday.

Famous TV personalities, women's rights advocates and academics joined together to discuss issues ranging from sexuality, sexual abuse and violence, and to promote "V-Day," a global movement to end violence against women and girls.

1. Thank you for the article. I saw Vagina Monologues

a couple years ago, deeply touching, as well as comic relief. Sounds like a revolution is coming to Taipei.
