The "Hoohaa" Monologues?

Really?

"We decided we would just use child slang for it. That's how we decided on Hoohah Monologues," Pfanenstiel said.

They did this after a driver who saw it complained to the theater, saying she was upset that her niece saw it.

"I'm on the phone and asked 'What did you tell her?' She's like, 'I'm offended I had to answer the question,'" Pfanenstiel said.
There's this phrase, see, that adult use when children ask them uncomfortable-to-answer questions. It's called "ask your mother," and it conveniently removes any obligation from having to answer said questions, or to get offended about it. Certainly public censorship should be the absolute last course of action for a person that can't even be bothered to string together a decent explanation about vaginas to their ignorant little offspring...right?

Seriously, though, what child old enough to read signs and form coherent English sentences about them doesn't know what a vagina is? What about the word "vagina" is offensive to the person forced to talk about them?

I don't know, maybe if the production was called "Stories About My Cunt" -- then maybe this lady would have a point.
