Monty Python nailed it years ago

Monty Python’s Life Of Brian - The ‘Right’ To Have Babies

Stan: “I want to be a woman. From now on, I want you all to call me ‘Loretta’.”

Reg: “What?!”

Loretta: “It’s my right as a man.”

Judith: “Well, why do you want to be Loretta, Stan?”

Loretta: “I want to have babies.”

Reg: “You want to have babies?!”

Loretta: “It’s every man’s right to have babies if he wants them.”

Reg: “But… You can’t have babies.”

Loretta: “Don’t you oppress me.”

Reg: “I’m not oppressing you, Stan. You haven’t got a womb! – Where’s the fetus going to gestate?! You going to keep it in a box?!”

Judith: “Here! I-- 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.”

Francis: “Good idea, Judith. We shall fight the oppressors for your right to have babies, brother. Sister. Sorry.”

Reg: “What’s the point?”

Francis: “What?”

Reg: “What’s the point of fighting for his right to have babies when he can’t have babies?!”

Francis: “It is symbolic of our struggle against oppression.”

Reg: “Symbolic of his struggle against reality.”

Called so because they were literally( sic) handmade, and yet still ended up being “widescreen” cinematic orgiastic splurges. Just another “Indie”-film…
