Scene 17
[walking outside in Vienna]
Jesse: I mean, there's these breeds of monkeys, right, and all they do is have sex, like, all the time, y'know. And, uh, they turn out to be, like, the least violent, the most peaceful, the most happy, y'know, so I mean, maybe fooling around is not so bad.
Selene: Are you talking about monkeys?
Jesse: Yes. I'm talking about monkeys.
Selene: Ah, I thought so, yeah.
Jesse: Why?
Selene: You know, I never heard this one, but it reminds me of, like, this perfect, y'know, male argument to justify them fooling around.
Jesse: No, no, no. Woman monkeys are fooling around, too. Everybody's fooling around.
Selene: Yeah, that's cute. [they laugh] You know, I have this awful paranoid thought, that feminism was mostly invented by men, so they could, like, fool around a little more. You know, women, free your minds, free your bodies, sleep with me. We're all happy and free as long as I can fuck as much as I want.
Jesse: Alright, alright, alright. But maybe, maybe there's some biological things at work here. I mean, if you had an island, right, and there were 99 women on the island, and only one man, in a year, you'd have the possibility of 99 babies. But if you have an island with 99 men, and only one woman, in a year, you'd have the possibility of only one baby. So...
Selene: So. You know what?
Jesse: What?
Selene: On this island, y'know, I think that there will only be, like, maybe 43 men left. Because they would kill each other, trying to fuck this poor woman, you know what I mean? And on the other island, there would be 99 women, 99 babies, and no more man, because they would have all gotten together, and eaten him alive.
Jesse: Oh yeah?
Selene: Yeah.
Jesse: Yeah? Yeah? See... see, I think there's something to that. I think on some level, women don't mind the idea of destroying a man, y'know. Like, I was
once walking down the street with my ex-girlfriend, y'know, right, and we just walked by these, like, real four, kind of thuggy looking guys, next to a Camaro,
y'know, and one of 'em, sure enough, says, 'Hey baby, nice ass.' Y'know, I mean. So, I'm like, alright, Hey, no big deal, I'm not gonna get uptight about this, right?
Selene: Yeah, plus, there were four of them, right?
Jesse: Yeah, exactly, there's four of them, right, but she turns around and she says [Jesse turns back, and flips the bird to the air behind him] Fuck you, dickheads, and I'm like, Okay, wait a minute, here, right. They're not gonna come over here and kick her ass, y'know what I mean. So who just got pushed to the front line on that one? You see what I'm saying? I mean, women say they hate it if your all territorial and protective, but if it suits them, then they'll tell you you're being all unmanly, or wimpy, or, uh.
Selene: You know what? I don't think women really want to destroy men, and if, even if they want to, they don't.. they don't succeed. You know what I mean? I'm sure even, y'know, men are destroying women, or are able... capable of destroying women, much more than women... Well, anyway, its depressing, I mean y'know what?
Jesse: What? You want to stop talking about this?
Selene: Yeah. I really hate it. You know Men-Women you know, its, its... there's
no end to this, like, y'know...
Jesse: Its like a skipping record, y'know
Selene: Yeah.
Jesse: Every couple's been having this conversation forever.
Selene: Any nobody's come up with anything.
