Why Can’t They “Just Get Along”? (V-Day meets P-Day on campus)

College administrators have been enthusiastic supporters Eve Ensler’s play The Vagina Monologues and schools across the nation celebrate “V-Day” (short for Vagina Day) every year. But when the College Republicans at Roger Williams University in Rhode Island rained on the celebrations of V-Day by inaugurating Penis Day and staging a satire called The Penis Monologues, the official reaction was horror. Two participating students, Monique Stuart and Andy Mainiero, have just received sharp letters of reprimand and have been placed on probation by the Office of Judicial Affairs. The costume of the P-Day “mascot” — a friendly looking “penis” named Testaclese, has been confiscated and is under lock and key in the office of the assistant dean of student affairs, John King.

The caption on one handout read, “My Penis is studious.” It showed Testaclese reclining on a couch reading Michael Barone’s Hard America, Soft America.

LOL! I hope this does catch on. ;o)

I think the solution lies in getting some "oppresed" group to join the cause. Maybe some size-challenged group?

Wow, a double stadnard among lefties...who'da thunk it??

[PBRSTREETGANG]

The P's tried to get closer to the V's...but they found it just kept getting too hard.

Can't you just imagine someone walking in on Mr. King while he's "trying on" that costume? LOL!

vagina = peace

I hope this administrator and the school get a lot of headlines for this. Maybe a feature on "Hard Copy"! LOL
