Whoa!!! I just read back my post to myself, and the part about Hooter's Restaurant should have read, "I'm NOT suggesting a movement against that restaurant's name..." In view of the recent quoting out-of-context issues and using information from our posts in news articles, I should have proofed this posting better. If I'm not careful, I'll be quoted in the paper as a crazed librarian wanting to shut down Hooter's Restaurant. I have no desire to shut them down or quibble with them over their crude use of the word hooters. It's certainly not the first and won't be the last restaurant to use women's anatomy in a tasteless manner. So, to reiterate my position, I was simply commenting on the ludicrous objection to the word vagina in its innocuous state as a word in a play's name as compared to the titillating and continued use of the word hooters by this restaurant chain.
