Summary

This quote questions the notion that women are only meant to be driven by their emotions and reproductive capacities. It implies that if women are bestowed with the ability to think critically and intellectually (represented by having a brain), then it implies they are meant to use this capacity to make sound judgments and decisions beyond the realm of their wombs. It challenges the idea of limiting women's roles solely to their reproductive capabilities, suggesting that women are capable of far more than being governed by their biological functions.
