What, you may ask, are "The Vagina Monologues"?

Violence in this context means a lot of different things: rape, rape as a war crime, assault/battery, sexual harassment, stalking, female genital mutilation, female infanticide, honor killing, acid attacks, dowry deaths and bride burnings, incest and sexual slavery.
