American University’s ‘Vagina Monologues’ will be Renamed

Political correctness strikes again, this time at a politically-correct annual event at American University:

The school announced the change in a campus-wide email obtained by Campus Reform, which explains that the infamous Vagina Monologues portray an “antiquated way of viewing gender.”

“The VM were revolutionary when first performed in the ‘90s, but our campus community has a more nuanced understanding of gender and sexuality than we did five years ago,” writes Kendall Baron, a member AU’s Women’s Initiative, which hosts the annual event.

Baron goes on to note that the Vagina Monologues impose the gender binary on women and uphold a definition of the human person that assumes people are nothing more than their body parts.
