First, this is not an Onion type piece.
The University of Cincinnati is displaying a bunch of vagina billboards ….. gigantic images of “vaginas in various states – including shaved ones, others that are blemished, and still some with tampons inserted”.
They are doing this because the vagina is “a site of conflict” [ain’t that the truth] and to point out that society has a “negative disposition” [not me!!] toward the vagina.
I insist we discuss the trials and tribulations of the vagina. We’ve been much to focused calling each other dicks, dickheads, cocksucker, chicken chokers … while many proclaim to have a 12 inch python, an obvious lie as none of you are 6’7” … the minimum height needed for such a handsome tool.
Sure, we call each other “pussy” all the time, but we’re talking about vaginas … which, I believe is a separate entity altogether.
Possible ways this discussion can go;
1)- The fucked up nature of college “education” in the USA
2)- A theory as to why Woman’s Lib hasn’t yet died a natural death.
3)- Whether or not this is a ploy to get male students at U. of Cinn. to suffer lower grades than females. Seriously, how is a young man going to concentrate on his chemistry class when moments ago he just walked by a 30 foot vagina with a tampon stuck in it?
4)- The general fucked-up-ness of American society, and what would James Kunstler have to say about this?
5)- Whether or not someone crosses the SSS nudity barrier — and post the U. of Cinn. vagina pictures. (I will NOT do so, I promise)
6)- Or, we can wager bets on when SAH appears and blows a fucking gasket.
=======================================================
Nearly a dozen billboard-sized photos of vaginas in various states – including shaved ones, others that are blemished, and still some with tampons inserted – are slated for display today and tomorrow at the University of Cincinnati as part of a student-sponsored “Re-Envisioning the Female Body” exhibit.
The female genitalia photos are in direct retaliation to an anti-abortion display hosted by prolife students at the university last May that included graphic images of aborted fetuses, its organizers state.
“Their billboard-sized photographs equated mutilated fetuses with genocide victims in an effort to shame women,” states Female Body exhibit organizers on their Facebook page. “Our demonstration serves to call attention to the vaginas as a site of conflict … its purpose is to incite conversation about the objectification, exploitation and discrimination of women’s bodies … it points to the negative disposition our society holds toward the vagina.”
“Re-Envisioning the Female Body” is hosted by the university’s LGBTQ Alliance and UC Feminists student groups and showcased at the school’s McMicken Commons, an outdoor “free speech” area at the center of campus with grassy knolls and several student walkways.
The exhibit consists of “11 4-by-6-foot photographic billboards of vaginas, 15 smaller signs featuring personal quotes about the female experience via the vagina, and one large billboard with a quote about race and the vagina,” according to an article in City Beat, a Cincinnati-based weekly newspaper.
“This exhibit’s billboards, whose production, along with the rest of the demonstration, was funded through club resources … and approved by the University Funding Board, show images of vaginas in an almost gynecological perspective, with legs spread, as if in stirrups,” the article states. “Some are shaved, some are blemished, some have tampons inside.”
“The pose that I chose reflects this idea that a woman’s body is sort of medicalized,” Kate Elliott, the University of Cincinnati student who co-organized the exhibit and took the vagina photos, told City Beat. “I overexposed the images so they’re really jarring. They’re not cutesy or subtle, they’re right up in your face.”
Reaction to the vagina display is mixed, according to the myriad of comments on the exhibit’s Facebook page.
“The event is brave,” Mecca Bosbarger, a Loyola University Chicago student, said on the Facebook page. “It shocked me to just hear about this event, but that is necessary.”
University of Cincinnati graduate student Kyle Galindez praised the display.
“I am really glad to see this happening at UC,” he said on Facebook. “We live in an incredibly misogynistic area. … Hopefully this can spark a much-needed discussion in Cincinnati about why we must let women control their own bodies and never allow so-called ‘pro-lifers’ to bring their misogynistic hate speech around here again.”
But student Annmarie Condit, president of University of Cincinnati’s Students for Life group, which brought the controversial “Genocide Awareness Project” anti-abortion images to the campus last year, decried the vagina exhibit as a red herring to the abortion debate, as well as outright ridiculousness.
“UC Students for Life are deeply saddened by this response to our use of abortion pictures on campus,” Condit said in a prepared statement. “The abortion pictures, while shocking and offensive, display the truth about the humanity of the babies killed by abortion. Using objectifying images of women with the claim that it makes a political or artistic statement is an utter non-response to the important issue of abortion; it’s nothing but the depraved use of obscenity for shock value. This display is an embarrassment to the students who are organizing it, and to the university as a whole.”
The involvement of Planned Parenthood with the vagina exhibit has also raised the ire of members of the prolife movement. Planned Parenthood was set to host a panel discussion dubbed “The Vaginas Are Coming” on Wednesday night to kick off the exhibit.
“Of course Planned Parenthood would be involved in this kind of immature campus event,” quipped Students for Life of America executive director Kristan Hawkins. “Forty-six percent of abortions are performed on college-aged women, so it’s no wonder why the local Planned Parenthood is less than a mile from UC’s campus. They want to be close to their targeted customers, and this event will only help market their lies. What these displays should be showing is a vagina with genital warts or a dead preborn baby being ripped from it as that is what Planned Parenthood sells.”

For images, you just his the “img” button, and past the address then hit, then hit “okay” and then hit cancel and the it should show up.
For videos, right click on the video screen, go to “copy video URL” and click on it. Then go your add new post screen and just copy it where you want it. After you hit “send for review” you click “preview post” to make sure the video screen comes up. Sometimes you have to do it a few times to get the video screen.

1. Well thank freaking gawd that our trillion in gov guaranteed student loans are going for such fine learning experiences. Makes me feel so much better about it.
2. I demand that they give the guys the same “respect” and post pics of their junk all over. Maybe, in lieu of the tampon string, they can have some with condoms – both newly used, and clean. (Ironic sidenote, I know, as do most of you, that those young, dumb, bitches – and their enablers/pushers/brainwashers in admin & faculty – would LOSE it, and not see the irony of their beliefs)
3. It does crack me up though, that our Puritanical roots just will not be erased no matter how “enlightened” we think we are. We allow the rape, murder, mistreatment and outright destruction of thousands and thousands of women with our laws & wars against sex. It’s a freaking body part that 50% of the population has and the other 50% wants to get to know better. Cripes America, way to go.

Teresa, I too don’t care much for the soft porn that is ubiquitious on this site. As much shit as I take for my anti-zionist and related posts, at least they concern liberty, our foreign policies and the waste of billions (trillions, really) on subterfuge and wars that are in no way in the national interest of the US and are a huge obstacle for the restoration (LOL) of liberty and the rule of law in this country, therefore I believe they are completely appropriate. Just the fact of the opposition to them is proof in my mind of the need to educate people (another phrase for beating them over the head with it). One would think that the types that enjoy a blog like this wouldn’t require the education. One would be wrong.
At any rate, there are plenty of places gawk at nudes, internet or otherwise. To bring that shit here lowers the IQ of this site, unless there is context that warrants such postings.

women were put on this earth after much complaining from adam, God created a woman and you know – everything God makes is beautiful. then people became corrupted and couldn’t think a thought that wasn’t evil. so God decided to limit man’s lifespan with obesity and degenerating dna. then he said he would only speak to man thru the prophets. i can’t say your prophet is less enlightened than mine. all i know is there is only one god and he goes by many names although i’m sure jeebus is not one of them.

I find it interesting that male virgins would probably only fetch a price from gay men – indicating that virginity of any sort is what is desirable – going where no man has gone before.
So we have a “need to be first” versus “the unexploited orifice” and yet it is the orifice that is debased and not the need to be first.

@TeresaE – “1. Well thank freaking gawd that our trillion in gov guaranteed student loans are going for such fine learning experiences. Makes me feel so much better about it.”
This was the first thing I thought of. Yet another reason I need to land a fat raise is so I don’t need to teach chemistry anymore. I don’t mind the students, there are still enough bright ones to make up for the shit, but I hate the politics of the place.
The place is a damned nightmare, and over the last 10 or so years, there has been a growing issue with administration taking more and more control away from professors, and rigging the system so that if a program wants to keep their budget, they have to drop their standards to keep the masses entertained.
