Wielding her mouth like a rubber sword, Ensler spouts facts and tells humor-riddled tales that spar, quell, slap and entice the audience into outright surrender to vagina power. And in a delicious coup de grace, she saves the play's penultimate moment for a character who gives up the corporate structure to become a vagina-loving lesbian dominatrix devoted to giving women pleasure. She's the ultimate moment. I love doing it so much, particularly in mixed audiences. Straight women really learn about sex.
Men learn about sex and how to treat a woman.
All women feel how great it is to have a vagina, to be turned on in your vagina, to have someone love your vagina, and I wanted a woman to say that. I thought it would be really wonderful to have a woman be the person who was the great expert. It just made sense to me. The truth is, whether you're gay or straight, you as a woman know more about your body than anybody else - or you should. I love nothing more than the idea of people giving up their corporate positions to become lesbian dominatrix.
