This guy’s got some issues that he needs to deal with on his own. Apparently, for State Sen. Winthrop S. Smith Jr., the word Vagina on a roadside billboard is just too much. The billboard in question was one for “The Vagina Monologues,” a series of monologues by women that ran earlier this month in New Haven. The billboard did not illustrate genitalia or promote scantily clad women – but it did contain the words “The Vagina Monologues” in giant letters with “Spread the Word” in smaller type. According to Smith, “There are some words that should not be up on a 20-foot billboard, like ‘penis.'”
Wow, this guy has some serious sexual repression issues. I mean, we’ve all got one or the other, but we’re just not allowed to talk about them – proper names, or not! Maybe somebody should get him one of these. Or one of these.
