I remember a feminist-humanist colleague,

More of a staunch feminist than a humanist.

Our mutual humanist male colleague said he didn’t want kids.

Obviously, he was pursuing activist and intellectual contributions to society, instead.

The feminist-humanist gave a look of disgust to his casualness regarding it.

I caught her involuntaries, the nonverbals.

Is the point mutual liberation or coerced adaptation of one to the other, as if an inverse of the perceived Oppressor?
