I’ve been at Georgia Southern for five years, and every year there are productions put on by various organizations. We are invited to a slew of poetry slams, fashion shows, and plays. Tonight we were enticed into the Performing Arts Center with promises of original clothes and a theme that would leave the women in the audience feeling empowered. After 2 and half hours of unfinished hemlines, nipple slips, and derogatory lyrics–I was disappointed.
I don’t find 20 girls marching to the beat of a bass heavy track as a man yells “B–ch” over it empowering. In fact, I was offended that whoever thought up the theme thought that it would fly with all the inconsistencies. Who would feel empowered bending over in a front of a half naked man as some rapper tells him to “drop that check, break her neck, make the p—-y wet…” I mean come on. Really?
Needless to say, that the show and its inconsistent presentation was a failure.

My words exactly. I was actually embarrassed when I left. Although the look on this father’s face as he watched his daughter drop down in a split, in lingerie, in front of about 200 people was priceless.
