MARIA: You know, I’m looking’ at this guy right, and I looked at him a lot before...
	MARIA cont'd: So now I know that I have this little piece of him actually in me, physically in me, and it makes me feel completely different I don’t know sort of special or something.

It’s really simple. He’s seeing my legs. He’s seeing my breasts, my ass, my mouth...
	MARIA cont'd: He’s seeing my cunt.

Announce that it’s real, that it’s alive, that it’s aggressive, that it’s outgoing. That it lookes like this, that it needs this, that it has this kind of dimension. And what does that mean? That means to really take control of our own identity as women.
