‘Vagina! Vagina!’: Mich. Lawmaker Protests Censorship at State Capitol by Performing ‘Vagina Monologues’

Michigan state Rep. Lisa Brown (D) (Source: 039.housedems.com)
(The Blaze/AP) – A state lawmaker who says she was barred from speaking in the Michigan House because Republicans objected to her saying “vagina” during debate over anti-abortion legislation performed “The Vagina Monologues” on the Statehouse steps — with a hand from the author.
Eve Ensler, whose famous play about women’s sexuality still packs theaters 16 years after it debuted, oversaw Monday night’s performance by Democratic state Rep. Lisa Brown, 10 other lawmakers and several actresses.
Capitol facilities director Steve Benkovsky estimated about 2,500 spectators — women and men — watched the play in downtown Lansing from lawn chairs and blankets. Billed on Facebook as the “Vaginas Take Back the Capitol!” event, the combination play and protest included political signs and chants of “Vagina! Vagina!”
“Looking at your vagina, she said, is a full days work,” Democratic Rep. Barb Byrum read.
Ensler can be seen speaking to the crowds wearing a black shirt with the word “Vagina” on it in pink lettering. “I am so proud of Michigan. I am so proud you came out. You have sheroes here,” she said, seemingly merging the words “she” and “heroes” together.
But there still wasn’t enough “vagina” symbolism. So the people who put together the event embellished the Michigan State Capitol steps with a giant red “V” for vagina.

Ensler, who flew in from California, where she’s overseeing production of her new play, said she was thrilled to be involved and likened the punishment meted out by the Republican leadership of the state House to “the Dark Ages.”
“If we ever knew deep in our hearts that the issue about abortion … was not really about fetuses and babies, but really men‘s terror of women’s sexuality and power, I think it’s fully evidenced here,” Ensler told The Associated Press by phone Monday before arriving in Lansing.
“We’re talking about the silencing of women, we’re talking about censoring people for saying a body part,” she said. “Half of these people who are trying to regulate vaginas, they can’t even say the word.”
Brown made her comments during debate last week on legislation that supporters say would make abortions safer but that opponents say would make it much harder for women to get abortions. While speaking against a bill that would require doctors to ensure abortion-seekers haven’t been coerced into ending their pregnancies, Brown told Republicans, “I‘m flattered you’re all so concerned about my vagina. But no means no.”
Brown was barred from speaking in the House during the next day’s session. House Republicans say they didn’t object to her saying “vagina.” They said Brown compared the legislation to rape, violating House decorum. She denies the allegation.
“Her comments compared the support of legislation protecting women and life to rape, and I fully support Majority Floor Leader Jim Stamas’ decision to maintain professionalism and order on the House floor,” GOP Rep. Lisa Posthumus Lyons, of Alto, said in a statement last week.
If repeated use of the word “vagina” makes you uncomfortable, watching the following CNN report on the event is not recommended, as the word appears a lot:
Byrum, of Onondaga, said she also was barred from speaking last Thursday because she referred to vasectomies during the debate.
“I‘m overwhelmed by how much attention we’re getting around the world,” she told Monday’s crowd.
Before the play began, Ensler joined Brown and Byrum on the Capitol steps and called for an apology from the Republicans who barred them from speaking.
“These women stood for our rights,” Ensler said to applause. “The vaginas are out. We are here to stay.”
The speaking ban lasted only through Thursday, when lawmakers left for a five-week break. But the incident has garnered attention internationally and on social media, where the hashtags (hash)vaginagate and (hash)sayvagina are attracting a flurry of posts.
Susie Duncan, 68, watched the play while holding a placard handed out by the American Civil Liberties Union reading, “Vagina. Can’t say it? Don’t legislate it.”
“I hope this will spur people to go vote,” the East Lansing resident said. “We’ve got to change this.”
Brown says it isn‘t just women who are upset with the House GOP leaders’ actions.
“I’ve heard from a lot of men. It’s not just women who are speaking out,” she said. Her father and mother attended the play.
The Women Lawyers Association of Michigan — whose 650 members include men — criticized taking away Brown‘s and Byrum’s right to speak. The group said it wasn’t taking a position on the bills in question, but on the lawmakers’ free speech rights.
“Representatives Brown and Byrum had a right to have their constituents’ 150,000 voices recognized on June 14, 2012. They were neither vulgar nor disrespectful,” the group wrote in a Monday release. “When the minority is silenced, justice cannot prevail and democracy suffers.”
Listen to some additional audio and take a look at some of the funniest and disturbing signs, items and T-shirts at the “Vagina Monologues” performance and protest, including “My Vagina is Angry” and “I didn’t come from your rib… You came from my vagina”:

So how does the GOP censoring the elected voice of citizens help Detriot? How does passing more restrictive and unconstitutional abortion laws add jobs and helps the economy? This is about the GOP silencing those that dared to question their ramage against the rights of the citizens.

Posted on June 19, 2012 at 4:43pmIt wasn’t a slight, it was a formal censure and barring from speaking in the house to which she was elected by people of her state. Please don’t make this some weird, prurient focus on Eve Ensler’s saggy breasts! My thoughts would be identical if Democrats censured a Republican for using the P word to describe a man’s junk.

Rather than worrying about her v@gina she should stop insulting the tax payer and try to help the wasteland that is Detroit. Hint: Being able to say “v@gina” while addressing the legislature isn’t part of that. I‘m sure she’ll be able to use the word again in the Michigan legislature if she observes some decorum instead the usual liberal hysterics. Calm your fragile sensibilities.

Most of Eve Ensler‘ distain for men was brought on by men’s total rightuous distain for her.
Plus, she’s now so desperate, she’s reduced to doing the V@gina Monologues as a cheezy advertisement to promote her own sexuality, which apparently bypassed her years ago. When she does the V-monologes I hope she employs the use of ‘Summers Eve.‘ It appears she’d be doing her audience a huge favor and it’ll work its way well into the act. About the only thing she has to offer now is some overly rippened flapjacks, which I‘m sure served with pure maple syrup won’t make them anymore palatable.

Posted on June 19, 2012 at 4:39pmHI – a fetus isn’t an “everyone”. it‘s not a person and doesn’t have the rights of a person.
let’s take this further. this Michigan bill makes it illegal to have an abortion after 20 weeks even if the life of the mother is in jeopardy. i guess she doesn’t have the right to life? even in cases of rape and incest. it‘s a disgusting bill that actively harms women’s health. yet it‘s presented as being for women’s health. LIARS!

Posted on June 19, 2012 at 5:16pmControl your own body!!! Duh go around having sex and you should suffer the consequences. Not to mention there are lots of people out there who can’t have kids, and can’t afford to adopt, but our tax dollars go toward killing the kids instead.

Posted on June 19, 2012 at 6:02pmHypocrisy: Demanding that the government stay out of your bedroom and your womb while simultaneously demanding they pay for your birth control and your abortions.

Posted on June 19, 2012 at 6:33pm@Phillyathiest, you do know that less than 1% of women who get abortions is because of rape or incest, so what about the other 99% and their excuse? I am so tired of women who won’t use something as simple as a contraceptive that can prevent a pregnancy, yet all hide behind the rape issue as their excuse. Let me ask you this, is it not a women’s responsibility to prevent themselves from getting pregnant if they are going to have sex? The answer to that is YES.
