Mitch Berg on The Narcissism Monologues of Winona High School
Mitch Berg, of Shot in the Dark blog, has nailed this local issue on the head! What’s the issue? It’s whether two girls have the right to wear “I (heart) my Vagina” buttons to high school. The school says no and the ACLU is saying yes. Read Mitch’s whole post, because he makes some very funny observations. He aptly names the real issue as narcissism, combined with the school leaders’ fear to name it for what it is: a narcissist interruption of learning.
“NOTE to any Winona High students: If you make a T-shirt labelled “I [Heart] Narcissistic, Self-Aggrandizing Drama Queens And Their Attention-Grabbing Stunts”, send me a photo of you in class (preferably in close proximity with Ms. Rethlefsen). I’ll reimburse you the cost of the T-shirt. We’ll also see if the ACLU leaps to your defense.”
Good job, Mitch!
