  • I take back my brief analysis of "The Little Coochie Snorcher That Could," from The Vagina Monologues.  In it, I said that the monologue was endorsing male-bashing.  However, that I would have to retract that statement.  First of all, all the monologues were based on anecdotes, and are not trying to make broad commentaries through them.  It would be easy for one to take them in such a way, but really the commentary is made throught the monologues as a collection, not solely in each piece.  In any case, I recommend you either watch a performance or check out the book for yourself.
