Thread: Casting Off My Womb

You may associate knitting with grandmas and the Woman's Institute, but it appears wool and two knitting needles can also be transformed into tools for gender protest.

Casey Jenkins, 34, is at the centre of an unusual piece of performance art, called Casting Off My Womb, in which she is spending 28 days knitting from a ball of wool which she inserted inside her vagina. She is currently halfway through the project.

In a video about the enterprise Casey says: ‘If you take a good, hard look at a vulva, you realize it's just a bit of a body. There's nothing that is shocking or scary, you know, nothing that is going to run out and eat you up.

I wonder what she's knitting? A red flag perhaps?

I can only hazard a guess at the combination of words you fed into google to come up with this little gem mate.
Or are you on the mumsnet.com mailing list?

Yuk!

28 days. She'll be using a few of those yarn balls for tampons.

Ewwww.

What a stupid, pointless, nonsensical, inane, tewwyesque, absurdity.

Apparently she was heard to say afterwards "it was a c,unt of a thing to knit !"

"Amateur", said Noi as she pulled razor blades out of her moneymaker.

that's gonna get real soggy if she gets a wide on.

Many,many guys in the world will tell you different.

Wonder if she's knitting me a willy-warmer. I'd better go see her for another fitting, see if she's got the length and width right.
If it's too small then at least I'd have one leg-warmer for the time being.

I heard blues mum made him a pooftah, I'm gonna ask her if I buy the wool can she make me one to!

I wish more people did knit ,its bastard cold here in Yorkshire and I'm looking for someone to knit me a hat in this pattern,
As there are only pitifully boring hats for sale in the shops.
Globalization? it just made things duller.
