I was a computer design engineer before women really got much into the field. I assure you that had NOTHING to do with vulvas or being wonder woman. It had EVERYTHING to do with working hard to achieve the goals I sat for myself just like everyone else I worked with did.
Honestly as a woman I feel this is a very demeaning way to depict honor to women.

Hi there! I did not do the planning for these events as I am just a placement student working on a different project (database stuff). I think the idea behind the craft aspect was that vulvas are not something to be ashamed of. As for the Wonder Woman cake, I think the idea was that women are powerful and can do anything they set their mind to.
This is not specifically a women's organization so that is not their focus. They would not have the time or resources to dedicate to educating the public on the many accomplishments of women throughout history (although I think that would be a fantastic idea). I appreciate your input.
