I thought I had heard wrong, I was certain she did not say the V word and even more certain she was not ask - ing me permission to be in a production about the V word. Turns out, I had heard right and my reaction to her casual use of the V word was very common. So common, in fact, that many people cringe when they hear about the Vagina Monologues. I totally un - derstand, I did it too. They, like me, were trained to resist talk- ing about all things V word long ago and were not comfortable and cer- tainly didn't ever see them- selves buying tickets for or sitting in an audience to hear women of all ages and walks of life talk about their private parts. So there I was in the audi - ence nearly six years ago wading through the pro- gram and sink- ing in my State Theater seat kind of freaked out about what I might be seeing. Would there be some hippy dippy vaginal worship com - ing out on stage? Was this some crazy zealous femi- nist protest against men and all things male ori- ented? Turns out, the Vagina Monologues were born of the desire to expose some - thing even worse than a woman's "down there." The Vagina Monologues aren't about making it any easier to say the V word in mixed company, any - one participating will tell you that the word itself is rather weird and I admit, I am not really someone who goes around espous - ing about a woman's vajay with confidence. The monologues are about raising awareness of the dark and lighter sides of all things associ - ated with that place on a woman's body. Things that make the audience pause, think harder and maybe take action to prevent. Things that someone in the audience with a similar story might relate to and therefore break free from years of pain. Fast for - ward seven years and pic- ture me at home getting a text asking if I would con- sider being a cast member this year. My initial reaction was no. I could not see myself on stage emphatically rep - resenting my nether re- gions before people I may see in line at Raley's or Starbuck's. I was too stiff, too shy and too weirded out by the thought. That didn't deter them. In more ways than one, it was made very clear that there was a piece that they wanted done and they thought I might have the personal perspective to de - liver it. Hmmmmmm, ap- pealing to my soft side, I agreed. I attended the rehears- als, the first of which I felt like a complete prude and V word out of water. Last week was our first performance. It was at the Old City Hall in Red - ding. I wasn't nervous, but I had no frame of reference and therefore uneasy. The house was sold out and that upped the ante a bit, but once we were on stage, everything came off per - fectly. Every cast member flawlessly delivered their piece and I found myself completely in love with the Vagina Monologues. Each time I heard an audi - ence member gasp with a new understanding of how women are marginalized or belly laugh at the absur - dity of feminine hygiene requirements, I fell more and more in love with the power of this show. So, if you are like I was, lost in your misunder - standing of the meaning of this show, drop your mis- conceptions at the door of the State Theatre this Saturday night and come watch me deliver a dra - matic piece about some- thing very personal to my life story. I will be at Wine Down Wednesday at Enjoy The Store with some cast Members if you want to buy tickets or ask ques - tions. I am so glad I didn't say no to something that has been such a positive thing to participate in.

The members of the TCCW Scholarship Com - mittee select the schol- arship winners based on the quality of an interview with the student and the student's autobiography, fi - nancial need, understand- ing and potential contri- bution to agriculture, un- derstanding of the cattle industry and grade point average.
