I wrote a post yesterday... What if My Daughter Grows Up to be a Republican ?
In the post... I asked for my readers to share some of the things... the websites, the "whatevers" that they went to... when they wanted to distract themselves from either the craziness, or the boredom of the everyday world.
One of my readers... Charles Buell... suggested something called TED.com. I had never heard of TED.com. So, why not ? Charles said it was a place he "hung out at" a lot.
Yeah... the skeptic in me said. So I went. And... yikes... I found some pretty good stuff. Some videos of a very different sort. I could tell they were videos that would challenge anyone who saw them. Maybe even including me.
It was then I noticed Eve Ensler had several videos. Eve, some of you women may remember, is the writer/performance artist who wrote and then toured... performing something called The Vagina Monologues.
I watched it on HBO I think. Twice, as I recall. It was excellent. So, that is how and why I recognized her name.

I just watched the video below. It's by Eve Ensler. It is titled "Eve Ensler: Embrace the Girl Within." I invite you to watch it.
I warn you, though. It is "deep." It will provoke you. It may even "bother" you. It may... even "change you." It is twenty minutes long. I have already watched it in its entirety. Twice.
It is not only for Women and Girls... but for you Men from Mars, too.
If you can make it all the way through... I would love to hear your thoughtful comments.
