So last year my friend Yvonne and I started writing open letters to our vaginas and mailing them to each other.  Eventually we had a whole series of open letters to and from vaginas and we decided to create The Vagina MonoBlog, where people could submit letters to their vaginas but we thought  first we should check with Eve Ensler since she’s the creator of The Vagina Monologues to make sure she wouldn’t sue us.  So I emailed her (slightly paraphrased):

Dear Eve,

(We would call you “Ms. Ensler” but it seems weird to be so formal since we know so much about your vagina.)  My friend Yvonne and I have a vagina correspondence and we thought, “Damn, we should start a whole blog about letters to and from our vaginas because God knows there isn’t enough vagina stuff on the internet”.  And we want to call it The Vagina MonoBlog in your honor.  It’s going to be awesome.  Like, here’s an example of what I wrote yesterday:

Real-Time Thoughts From My Vagina The First Time She Encountered a Tampon:

Um…What the fuck is that?!  What the Fuck!  WHAT THE FUCK?!

Holy shit, I’ve been shot!  But oddly with *less* blood.  What the hell?!

God, cotton mouth. What, vulva?  Some  little string is tickling you?  Oh, I’m sorry to hear that you’re suffering from a mild “yarn annoyance” but it appears that I’VE BEEN FUCKING SHOT.  Or possibly gagged.  I’m not sure from this angle.

Oh fuck you, asshole.  I’m sick of your smug grin just because this kinda shit never happens to you. What?  No, vulva…I wasn’t talking to you.  I was talking to the asshole.  That’s why I said “asshole”.  If I was talking to you I’d say “Evelyn”. Or cunt.  Ha!  High five, ovaries!

Are you calling the police? Because that is not our intention. 

Our intention is to create a place where women can share intimate stories and laughter about their vagina (with possibly some “intermittent dick dialogue” thrown in to keep it fair and balanced).  We want to share a little laughter with the world. 

Laughter inspired by your vagina.
 
Love,  Jenny and Yvonne.

Then we got a letter from her lawyer telling us we were not allowed to use that title and he kind of implied we should maybe never contact Eve again.  Which was disheartening.  So then we decided we’d start another blog named EveEnslerDoesn’tCareAboutYourVagina but then we realized we’re both too disorganized to start another blog anyway and that neither of us are prepared for a long vaginal court battle with Eve Ensler even though now that I’m typing that out it kind of sounds awesome.  Like, exhibit A: a letter from my vagina about freedom of expression.  Care to cross-examine, prosecutor?  No, I didn’t think so.  The defense rests, your honor.

Comment(s) of the day:  Since the Vagina Blog thing doesn’t seem to be happening, maybe you could twit (or tweet or twat) about your vagina. Then you could say that thousands of people follow your vagina. ~ Puravida
     
OMG, that’s it! You could start a platform for vaginas across the world to throw their wisdom out into the internet (with a 140 character limit) and call it Twatter! ~ Kari
     
I call bullshit. Her vagina is practically public domain. Which means you can do what ever you want with it.  Ok. That’s not exactly what I meant, but surely you can play around with the idea of her vagina. Ok. That’s not it either. Shit. What I mean is that I’m sure that fair use laws govern what you do with her vagina.   DAMMIT. ~ Well Read Hostess

What’s weird is that I would definitely have read that blog. It’s pretty sad Eve didn’t have more of a sense of humor about how she made her fame. Cuz really? The Vagina Monologues is pretty ridiculous and if she’s all about taking herself seriously then there’s really no point in taking her seriously, is there?

Oh god, do it. You must do it. Vaginas everywhere must have a place to voice their opinions, Eve Ensler be damned. Just because her vagina paved the way (and let me just say, the mental images that brings about are horrid) doesn’t mean the rest of them have to suffer in silence.

My vagina can’t read. It grew up in Florida. It also really sucks at geography, which really doesn’t matter when it comes to reading blogs, but I thought I’d mention it anyway.

Also, my vagina is mute. I guess I could teach it sign language, but I would need a giant labia for that.

22 Morgan April 14, 2009 at 11:33 am

If you created that blog I’d write letters to my vagina like every single day. My vagina would be my penpal. That never writes back.

To be fair if my vag wrote back I’d be somewhat disturbed.

I get Eve’s resistance. I mean, she’s trying to do a respectable thing by making people more aware of domestic violence, women’s issues, etc.

You, on the other hand, are snarky and silly. I get that she wouldn’t want to confuse the brands.

On the other hand, my vagina has always wanted an artistic outlet. So when you decide on the blog name, sign her up!

68 mayopie April 14, 2009 at 1:33 pm

I think it’s an excellent idea. While vaginas are very popular on the internet, so few things are written from the vagina’s perspective… for the vagina. I for one have lots of questions that I’d be embarassed to ask the vagina’s host like, “So, when’s the last time you had a guest in? Was it a party or just a familiar friend?” or “I know she said it’s big, but what do you think? You’re the expert.” Then I know I would get the truth because vaginas are incapable of telling lies due to not being able to access the brain’s creative center. You can look it up if you don’t believe me.

Oh. My. God. I did a little sketch a while back featuring a conversation I had with Gwendomama and called it “The Vagina Dialogs,” but this is way better. It concerned her recent “female troubles” and a conversation she had with an OB-friend about them where the OB-friend said “if it WAS cancer it would have to be REALLY advanced to cause symptoms like THAT” and Gwen was freaking out and I was like “that wasn’t very nice of her, the cow,” and she was like “well in her defense we hadn’t talked in a while and what would you expect calling a friend out of nowhere and being all ‘wanna look at my vagina?’ without even asking them to have coffee first” and I was like “Personally? Gratitude and exultation, but maybe that’s just me” and then we both DIED. It was like Take Your Vagina on G-chat day. If you decide to do the copyright infringement I’m definitely in :)

Also, She probably has never let go of the “i forgot i already had a tampon in there!” incident. God, Vaggy, I’m still so sorry about that.

Dude, you might have triggered Eve’s reaction when you let your vagina refer to your vulva as “Evelyn” and then said “If I was talking to you I’d say ‘Evelyn’. Or cunt. Ha! High five, ovaries!”

Evelyn is to vulva as Eve is to cunt.
So you were off to a bad start right there.

I would have your own lawyer write back that she couldn’t sue, though. Parody and satire have a lot of leeway in fair use. Or maybe your own paralegal will do it.

Also making it sort of worth it? Playful news headlines, like “Lady Justice – Not only blind, but also on the rag”

Hey! Isn’t her vagina technically a celebrity and its own persona so why can’t you write about it or refer to it. I think you should just go ahead and DO IT! I have never thought about what I would say to my vagina…hmmm..

But you know I totally remember that first tampon moment. I didn’t know you had to remove that little tube!! I walked around all day with that thing in me.

That broad ain’t the boss of my vagina! No matter what her lawyer thinks.

Not that I do anything special with it except allow it to self-clean, but that’s a natural characteristic of all vaginas, not just mine. Can you imagine me trying to get a patent on the Self-Cleaning Vagina? I think not!

Why don’t y’all do a parody like “The Pussy Dialogues?” If I recall correctly, parody or satire or both (I wasn’t listening during that session of theatre class.) are fair game. That way you could exercise your vagina, I mean pussy, obsession, without threat of a gag, I mean tampon, order from Ms Ensler’s lawyer’s judge-on-the-take.

Just a suggestion…

A man goes to the doctor and says:

Doc: Let’s see.. Feels bad, but looks fine.. that’s not you cause you feels fine but looks bad.
Next.. Feels bad, looks bad? Nope, that’s not it either cause you feels fine, but looks bad..

AH.. here it is, Feels Fine, Looks bad.. it says here you’re a Vagina.

109 MonsteRawr April 14, 2009 at 8:44 pm

I’m depressed to hear that Eve Ensler doesn’t have a sense of humor. I would have been like, “Hell, yeah!” If you’d like to name your blog VaginaRawr, I’d be totally honored. Or MonsterVagina. But I understand if you don’t.

I left this post open while my wife used the computer, and after I got it back, I asked if she had read this. She said, “I flipped to it, but it looked stupid, so I didn’t read it.”

I couldn’t believe this, but I told her, “It ALWAYS looks stupid, but it’s always gold. You should know that by now!”

And you know what, even when it IS stupid, it’s still great.

I would read this blog– I’m pretty sure that as long as you put a disclaimer on the page that it was in no way related to The Vagina Monologues, no judge in the world would bother taking up their case, except to order them to stop harassing you (as needed).

I have a vagina joke:

A) “Is that semen, or are you just drooling with delight to see me?”

Okay, it’s not very funny.

But it only proves once again that guys don’t know squat what vaginas are saying.
In fact, I wouldn’t trust me with vagina dialog if I had one.
Wait!</b. that didn’t come out right…..

Just adding my voice to the chorus – do it, you have an audience of 143 (minus Amy) and it seems most of us have a vagina or are interested in vaginas.

In Ireland vaginas are sometimes known as fannies (that’s why Irish people snigger when we see Frugal Fanny stores) or gees, from Sheila na Gee an ancient stone carving of a woman holding her vulva open.

145 jd April 15, 2009 at 10:53 pm

Dear Vagina,
This letter serves as a formal apology. I want to express my sincere regret for the mate I have chosen as our monogamous partner until death do us part. I have come to realize the implication that means for you, dear vagina. I never imagined that the beginning of our marriage would be the end of all pleasure for you. “What about all of those hot buff dudes at the gym?”, you ask. “Wouldn’t one of them suffice?” I wish you were right, friend. Unfortunately, there is this moral dilemma with that scenario that I don’t have the time or energy to deal with. For now, synthetic pleasure will just have to do. I hope you can find it within your clitoris to forgive me.

Sincerely,
Your loving brain

150 Robinson (ljrphoto) April 16, 2009 at 7:10 pm

I’m not positive, but I am reasonably certain that titles cannot be copyrighted and therefore, fair use or not, The Vagina Monoblog is totally legal. You might want to check with your poonanny’s attorney before moving forward though. (If someone already covered that sorry for being redundant – it was a long day and I’ve been drinking).

151 Musing April 17, 2009 at 6:59 pm

Okay, now, legal talk can sometimes make my brain fuzzier than, well, I’ll just leave the metaphor to your imagination, but I’m pretty sure parody is protected by the fair use law or something.

As long as the “newly created work that purports itself to be parody is a valid parody.” http://www.publaw.com/parody.html
