Anti-feminists hate vaginas

Poor Cupid, tethered to the unreasonable feminist demand that women not be raped.
It’s that time of year again, folks! Since it’s almost Valentine’s Day, colleges across the country are gearing up to put on performances of The Vagina Monologues. And as they love to do (since they have shit else to complain about), anti-feminist organizations like the Independent Women’s Forum (IWF) and the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute are likewise launching their annual campaigns against the award-winning play. (The above image is from IWF’s Take Back the Date flyer.)
The latest is a hilarious press release from the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute that one of our readers sent in:

February 14, a day generally recognized for hearts, love and valentines, is now a day that has become increasingly associated with female private parts and the radical feminist agenda.
With shock value as its main tactic, the production has effectively captured the attention of college students around the nation. And with the purported message of ending violence against women, the Monologues’ parent movement, V-Day, has earned praise from leftist groups, celebrities, and politicians across America, and even the world. But others-perhaps more than you think-are quietly left wondering how embracing vulgarity is going to make the world a safer place for women.

The organization has even put together a booklet encouraging students to protest the “vulgar” play, “The Vagina Monologues Exposed: A Student’s Guide to V-Day.”
What’s particularly irritating to me – despite the tired notion that feminists are somehow killing romance by raising awareness about violence against women – is that these organizations refuse to talk about the incredible things this play has done for women across the globe. The Luce Policy Institute website even says that “V-Day has no real impact on the violence.” I guess raising over 30 million dollars is no biggie for women, huh?
It’s amazing that these groups would rather spend their time and money denigrating a play because it has the word “vagina” in it than actually, you know, do something on behalf of women.
