Does anyone know anything about The Vagina Monologues ?

I'd been told, by people who I'd regard as reliable, that they were extremely funny. Last night, I accidentally found a performance on the telly. The 2 minutes I watched seemed to consist entirely of a woman explaining how she'd "reclaimed" the word cunt, and then repeatedly saying it in different silly voices.

Which the audience seemed to find hilarious. Which I found incomprehensible. It's not like I found it offensive, it just... wasn't funny.

[One Notional Kudos Point to anyone who realises why I suddenly remembered about this :) ]

I'd have thought/hoped so too, but people aren't logical - see the comments in Josh's entry (the link I pointed at above).

By the way, I've long wondered which of the people at Oxford who I didn't really know, but recognised as a name, at the time you are. :-) If you didn't know me at Oxford at all then I don't suppose it matters at all!

Ah, I must have missed that bit. Oh yes, I remember, the mocking friend. Well, what can I say, some women are idiots! Speaking for myself, I'd love to see men there on their own initiative. If I ever plcuked up the courage to go :)

No, I do remember you! I'm Kate Harding. I have no idea whether that'll ring any bells.

Yes, it does! I carried around something with your autograph on for years. Admittedly it was my OURPGSoc membership card, but at least I do know who you are. :-)
