The Warrior Within: 'Vagina Sculpture' at Wasilla High School

Our focus should be replacing the present Panderer-in-Chief with a genuine leader. This is by far not the worst piece of art mounted on public property.

So, this is a solid object with a "slit", through which shields are emerging. There are all sorts of things that come through others in art, and in life. Does the removal of a peach pit, considering that the cleft in a peach reminds some of the female organ, also remind you of a "birth" experience? What about the removal of the pit from an olive? Where does it end? and since WHEN does the "birth" of ANYTHING  mean obscenity? It is a beautiful (if painful for the mother) experience and sight to behold. The coming forth of either new life, whether it be a baby, a seed (also a baby of sorts) or two symbolic warrior shields, is amazing. The only people I see getting all excited and upset about this are the parents, particularly sexually repressed mothers, that do NOT want to have "the talk" with their daughters, and ANYthing that could hasten that event is to be covered up, destroyed, or otherwise hidden away. Wake up and smell reality, ladies, and MAYBE your daughter won't get pregnant at 15 out of ignorance, because she KNOWS that although having a baby is a wonder of nature, it's one that obviously is going to be painful. Try using THAT point when you feel you HAVE to explain this beautiful work of art to them, which you probably WILL, since you made SUCH a fuss, she's going to want to know why. Idiots, geeze.

What am I missing? There's the vulva and then there's the vagina. Am I the only person in the world to think that things have a name for a reason? And that it's reasonable to call things by their name? When and why did "vagina" come to mean vulva? I'm not trying to split hairs or put too fine of a point in things, I'm just confused.
