Three female high school students in the US were suspended from school after using the word vagina during a presentation of, wait for it, the Vagina Monologues. The school principal said they were suspended for disobeying their teachers who told them not to say vagina, not for actually saying vagina. Fortunately some sense has prevailed, after outrage from peers and parents, and the suspensions have been postponed. (
