...Besharov cites the case of a three-year-old who told a social worker a story about a piece of candy being dropped into her underpants. After interviews by various child-protection workers, the story evolved into a tale that a candle had been inserted into the child's vagina. It took months of further interviews to discover that the original story had been correct...

...film can't even live up to its title, which suggests an hour or so of big bad Arnold coping comically with snotty tykes. Oh, young performers from the Professional School for Kute Kids do get to recite part of the Gettysburg Address and, of course, say penis and vagina. But mostly Cop is a police procedural, a hostage thriller, a no-brain suspenser and a vengeful- mother drama.

"We've been living in the stone age. We've had enough of old sausage Gods," she snaps. The dialogue of the two male characters unfortunately distracts from the vagina's pronouncements. And this commentary on patriarchal culture, particularly as it is represented in the church, is important...

This noteworthy production has a meaningful and novel close. After the two men are harassed by the talking vagina, their penises apparently become defensive, and as a result, inexplicably vocal. Their voices, we imagine, are not so different from what the voice of an unoppressed woman would be. Sexgod challenges both the actors and the society from which they are born, and Gammons's production is a worthy one. But the viewers, educated in A Theological Position, must wonder why, even here, the dicks have the last word...
