Jane Fonda and Her Shocking C-Word Remark on Today Show
It was like the shot heard round the world. What did Jane Fonda say, and where did she say it? Oh, it was just Jane Fonda’s unabashed use of the C-word on NBC’s Today Show this morning! It sent the show’s staff, the network, and the country reeling into a tizzy of disbelief. It’s morning television’s version of “shock and awe”!
To many, it was offensive; to others, it was funny! What’s more funny is that Fonda didn’t even apologize for her use of the vulgar slang word; she uttered it matter-of-factly and had literally no reaction to her own “slip”, if you can call it that, i.e. perhaps it was deliberate.
In case you’re in the dark, the “C-word” is the vulgar rendition of the word for a certain female body part “down below”. You know, it’s four letters, begins with a ‘c’, and ends with a ‘t’. Some folks refer to it as an acronym for “see you next Tuesday”, i.e. “c” “u” “next Tuesday”.
The rule is: You can’t say it on TV!
You want to see the clip of Jane Fonda saying the C-word? Here it is.
But come now… what’s all the fuss, really? It’s Valentine’s Day, and millions of couples will be at it making love all day and night, right? It’s striking that Jane Fonda used a word for a part of the woman’s body that will be in full swing today!
She was discussing her role in the play “The Vagina Monologues”. See, vagina is okay to say. Some people have a lot fun with that word, as shown in this video: The Vagina Game. Watch the video to learn how to play - it’s pretty funny!
After you watch, you’ll understand that maybe that’s how “The Vagina Monologues” got it’s name; maybe it was originally called, I don’t know, something like “The Boring Monologues”. But then, playwright Eve Ensler played “The Vagina Game” on it, and the new name she came up with stuck!
WARNING: The video contains multiple uses of the word “vagina”… if you’re offended by such language (even though it’s the anatomically correct name for that body part), consider yourself warned.
