Okay just a few quick points: I think this story is funny so far. Not audible laughter funny but more like a light chuckle. Or a hidden smile funny. Not like watching an old person fall down the stairs or an SNL skit (which would be the more unfunny of the two).
Characters:
Lysistrata: Byotch! *insert whip sound here* Not really but she comes off that way because she seems so pissed at these other womyn for not showing up. Don't they have to walk long distances? Calm down.
Kleonike: I imagine her to look hawiian. Think about it... Anyway she seems like Lysistrata's bff for way back but at the same time someone who is searching for approval. Needy. Like Brutus to her Ceaser(Mean Girls reference)
Quick question: When they say inspect(Lampito&Ismenia) what does that mean? I got an interstingly strange impression of the whole thing.
Myrrhine: I could see really opposing Lysistrata in this play because they both seem so strong and vocal in comparison to the other womyn who are more quite and seem...squemish.
*I used womyn in this section in honor of Talor and feminist womyn everywhere

AWWWWWW, thanks J'mag, i was just gonna say that i was proud of you fer the spelling of "womyn" and then i was all, awwww, J'mag, you make me blush. ne way, i'm loving the humor too, but the inspection thing kinda got me too. the way that it's set up it sounds like they're really "inspecting" her which is kinda akward. idk... this might even be a story that's too much fer me, n i'm a debater, so the rest of the world will prolly b offended.
hm i think i understand ur feeling towards the play, Like, it's funny...but not really.
anywhoos. interesting.."womyn" i don't get the different really except for the letter...
Womyn with a "y" as explained to me by Talor, takes the male influence out of the completely female enity. To me it's just proving that womyn can exist without the "men" in them.
womyn... pretti kool... i think... Now lysistrata is a womyn... she is strong...WIthout the "man"... u get it... ooo... im 2 raw yo... lolz... but this is krazii wierd, inspect hmmm... interestin... inspect playin with language...
yeah its a really funny subtle in some parts but then a really laugh out loud kind of funny in others but that's probably just because i'm immature and laugh when something says erection. i liked the character analysises.
