I SAY...

THE COLOSSEUM, JERUSALEMCHILDREN'S MATINEE
(...)Judith: I do feel, Reg, that any anti-imperialist group like ours must reflect such a divergence of interests within its power base.

Reg: Agreed. Francis?

Francis: Yeah. I think Judith's point of view is very valid, Reg, provided the movement never forgets that it is the inaliable right of every man...

Stan: Or woman.

Francis: ...or woman. To rid himself...

Stan: Or herself.Francis: ...or herself.

Reg: Agreed.

Francis: Thank you brother.

Stan: Or sister.Francis: ...or sister. Where was I?

Reg: I think you'd finished.Francis: Oh, right.Reg: Furthermore, it is the birthright of every man...

Stan: Or woman.

Reg: Why don't you shut up about women, Stan. You're putting us off.

Stan: Women have a perfect right to play a part in our movement, Reg.

Francis: Why are you always on about women, Stan?

Stan: I want to be one.

Reg: What?

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 foetis going to gestate? You going to keep it in a box?[Loretta starts crying.]

Judith: 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 Roman's, but that he can have the right to have babies.[This seems to satisfy him.]

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.
