I thought it was more an “idc if you’re infertile because I am too” and it just has a tragic backstory. I could be wrong I haven’t watched AOU in a while but I never thought she felt like a monster because she couldn’t have kids. Because of her ledger, ya. Does she want kids and feel sad about not being able to have them? Also ya, but I never felt like they were the same feeling
hmm yeah i could see that as what she meant but i watched it last night and she tells bruce about the “graduation” from the red room after he says he can’t have kids, and right after she finishes telling him about it she says “still think you’re the only monster on the team” which to me makes it seem like she’s referring to the sterilization and not her ledger
I can definitely see that. But she might also have said that about anything that marked her graduation to be a literal assassin. She might also feel less than human because the point of the procedure was literally to dehumanize her. She might still feel that way if they took her kidneys too. A bad mix of meeting Bruce where he is and the loaded feelings around fertility. I’d love to see a woman’s take on the scene
i am a woman lol! i do think the situation is very complicated her feelings like a monster is probably a mix of both the red room thing and the infertility thing; i do understand that she (and irl infertile women) may feel that way for not being able to have kids, i just wish they approached it in a different way than comparing her to the hulk bc the situations don’t feel comparable
