American Horror Story: Coven - 12 Most WTF Moments

8. Zoe's Vagina Of Death

At least your first time wasn't as bad as Zoe's... At this point, Zoe is unaware of her powers, let alone the fact that she's a witch. As far as she's concerned, she is a normal teenager who has decided to give into her hormones and have sex for the first time. So when her boyfriend dies of a brain hemorrhage because she has a vagina of death, it's a bit of a shock and a sickening concept. The whole point of sex is to create life, but Zoe's vagina transforms her into a black widow. She is taken into the Academy For Exceptional Young Ladies in the attempt to control her power. But the revelation is that she is currently unable to have intercourse without killing her partner, so her only options are to work of the art of seduction for evil or have sex with people who are already dead. She practises both. In an attempt to gain revenge for Madison's trauma, Zoe also rapes one of the culprits responsible and kills him. Sexual assault and violence is a taboo subject in every day life, let alone on screen, and in this case, there is also an added role reversal as Zoe is the attacker. This portrays how hostile these witches can be and how empowered they are by their abilities, thereby creating the neologism 'bitchcraft.' So when viewers have time to digest all of this information, it's all a bit much; especially for men who were probably clutching their crotch and are now suspicious if death vaginas actually exist.
