have sexual relations...

It wasn't until 1988

that they had these tests

that could show that

I was telling the truth,

not that it mattered by

that point. It was obvious.

But back then,

nobody believed me.

The harder I tried to convince

people I was telling the truth,

the crazier I seemed.

And pretty soon, I began

to wonder if I was crazy.

How else could you explain

something like that?

It's outlandish.

Not even worth discussing.

But, Senator, you must admit

these statistics are compelling.

United States, 10,000 claims.

Great Britain, 6,000 claims.

India, 20,000 claims.

Even Soviet women are claiming

to have become pregnant.

We all know that women,

by nature,

are very impressionable

and prone to hysterics.

It's a known fact.

Now perhaps the hormonal

changes involved in pregnancy

amplify this hysteria

and their own gullibility.

And then, you see, they hear about

another woman's bizarre claim

about her pregnancy, and

suddenly they're all doing it.

They cannot help themselves.

It becomes a fad.

Here we have the major developed

countries that existed at that time.

What's interesting is that

governments all over the world,

with every different kind

of political structure,

remember this was

before unification,

when faced with fatherless

pregnancy claims,

they all reacted

the exact same way.

I've been very preoccupied with

other matters for a while.

I'd have to ask

a little more time.

Sir, will you

be able to have an opinion

-a little later on?

-I'm not sure.

It has certainly been

a surprising spectacle.

They pretended like

it wasn't happening.

But this is not so hard to

fathom when you consider that

at that time, every one of those

governments was run by men.

Personally, I can understand the

position the authorities took.

It would have been irresponsible

just to come out and say

that a growing number of women were

procreating without male insemination.

On the whole,

men are rational beings.

But we have egos, too.

And nobody likes being told

they're becoming obsolete.

Obviously,

it's not for everyone,

but I still look forward to

going to work every morning.

There's not a lot of guys

who can say that.

Not anymore.

Come on,

I'm gonna tell Mommy.

Come on, you.

There's lots of things

I like about him.

He's fun to be around. And he's

caring, he's easy to talk to.

Andrew, I can't see.

Okay, let's take a break.

If we still had fathers,

he'd definitely be the kind

I'd want for Violet.

What's that word

they used to say

about a man who

looked appealing?

Handser? Hands...

Handsome?

Handsome. Yeah.

Well, that's what they would

have said about Andrew.

That he's handsome.
