IS YOUR VAGINA HAPPY?

Well if it's white and happy, your vagina is racist! From Michigan Daily:
The producers of this year's staging of the Vagina Monologues at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor have said that white women need not apply for onstage roles because they want only women of color at center stage this year, according to the Michigan Daily.

But that's okay, because they are doing it only to "rectify biases of the show and reignite interest among the study body."

Critics have accused the play's writer, Eve Ensler, of putting minority women only in roles that highlight sexual violence, alienating potential actresses of color.

This year's director, Lauren Whitehead, says she can't change the script but she can change the faces of the women reading the script.

"The script is flawed in its attempt to give all women a voice because it seems to give certain women certain voices," she says. "I often wonder why angry vaginas can't be white and happy vaginas can't be Asian."
You heard the woman! Get busy and make your white vaginas mad!
