Quote context

[...]

- It's every man's right to have babies if he wants them.

- But you can't have babies.

- Don't you oppress me.

- I'm not oppressing you. You haven't got a womb. Where is the fetus gonna gestate? You're gonna keep it in a box?

- Here, I've got an idea. Suppose you agree that he can't actually have babies, not having a womb which is nobody's fault, not even the Romans,' but that he can have the right to have babies?

- Good idea, Judith.

- We shall fight the oppressors for your right to have babies, brother Sister. Sorry.

- What's the point?

- What?

- What's the point of fighting for his right to have babies when he can't have babies?

- It is symbolic of our struggle against oppression.

- Symbolic of his struggle against reality.

- It's dangerous out there.
