The Education Wonks: This One Just Has To Be Read To Be Believed

OK I’m ticked…my “passed note” to this “teacher” (all I can say is I hope retirement is near)….

I cannot believe you said “it is my opinion that this is probably more about getting attenion, and less about advocacy.”

Do you know these girls? How dare you, as a secondary teacher, assume something about young women who you have never even met? Why is it so difficult for you to believe that young women might actually BELIEVE in something? Oh wait, could it be because you can’t bring yourself to say the word vagina? Is it because you don’t find women’s issues important enough to be brought out into the open?

My 15 year old daughter, who is homeschooled, proudly wears a tshirt with “Value Your Vagina – VOTE” on it. She does this NOT to get attention but to draw attention to WOMEN’S ISSUES and to encourage people TO USE THEIR HEADS and THINK about women’s issues.
