The word vagina and penis aren't out of the ordinary. Although they are private parts, they are still just parts of the body. It's not like anybody is using an explicit curse word. There are other words for penis and vagina that we have all heard that are totally inappropriate and if those are used on TV, and in print ads then I can see it crossing the line.Chase Seniornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441166968399353218.post-14362906895483089562012-02-02T00:33:44.056-05:002012-02-02T00:33:44.056-05:00I wouldn't say "vajayjay" is necessa...I wouldn't say "vajayjay" is necessarily sexist, but it certainly is demeaning and tinged with mockery. It's not like broadcast news outlets (or sitcoms, for that matter) use mocking terms of male genitalia, and I think female organs deserve the same respect. Note that even in the "Friends" clip, it's referred to as a "penis," and nothing mocking.Alexis Sachdevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09435933871743056119noreply@blogger.com
