Sumario:An essay is presented on how female sexual epithets are differently used in American and Czech culture. It notes that the female genitalia in Czech Republic and its social context of womanhood is not portrayed demeaningly as in the U.S. It cites that the latter country tends to contrastingly objectify the female body to something that should not be publicly seen but necessary for marketing products. It also mentions the worries of the author in raising his daughters in a sexist world.
