I was not hesitant to go see the Vagina Monologues; however, after arriving I did feel somewhat out of place. I was probably one of ten or so males in the audience, which alone made me a little uncomfortable. I really had no idea what to expect. I had heard about the play before, but did not know anything about the plot or how it was produced. I assumed from the name that it would be done in the form of monologues, which I guessed correctly. After the introduction by the cast and the first monologue named "hair," I felt even more out of place. I don't think I was alone in this feeling from the look on many of the faces in the crowd. Despite the vulgar content of the show, the points introduced and the meaning behind many of the monologues helped give me some insight into the feminine world.
             The first monologue named "hair" discussed if women should shave the hair in their pubic region. The monologue was based off of an interview with a woman whose husband told her the reason he cheated on her was because she would not shave her hair. When the couple went to therapy, the therapist thought that it was awful that the women would not shave her pubic area. The women thought this was terrible and women should have the choice if they want to shave or not. Other monologues included topics of appreciating the beauty of the vagina, when girls first receive their period, and spousal abuse.
             The actresses in the showed performed excellently, I was very impressed. After I got over my initial embarrassment of the vulgarity seen in the show, I appreciated much of the insight about the human body and the need for equality between sexes.
