"I was taught that my vagina was something private to the point of embarrassment," the comedienne Kathy Najimy said, explaining her involvement in V-Day. "And then I started in the women's movement, and I realized that if you have sex, you have power." She added, "Now I would like my middle name to be 'Vagina.'"
