“We only have babies when we’re young enough not to know how grim life turns out. Once we really get the full measure of it—we’re slow learners, we women—we dry up in disgust and sensibly halt production.”
I think this is a really clever quote. Not only does it allude to lack of women’s education, but explains a biological process in a folkloric way that fits the story & world, all in a quip!
