What are the motifs in The Vagina Monologues by Eve Ensler?

Celebrating female power is a recurring idea. On the other side of the coin, or on the opposite edge of the sword, is the book's determination to move beyond awareness and into celebration - of sensuality, of power, of joy, of independence, and of uniqueness ... all of which, the monologues contend, can and should be associated with having a vagina (i.e., being a woman). In its content, in its mission, in its very existence, the book urges women of all ages, ethnicities, backgrounds, sexual orientations, etc., to move beyond the oppression and suppression they face as individuals and as a community and embrace their womanhood, as symbolized by their vaginas. In other words, the book advocates freedom - from preconception, from violence, from any and all forms of oppression.
