"What, uterine replicators and stunners?" He clears his throat, and tugs at his cuff. This is not precisely how he wanted this conversation to go. "Well. The stunner is exactly what you can imagine - a nonlethal weapon. A distance weapon, more precisely. No need for all this ghastly cutting and bleeding and dying of infection when you're using stunners. A stunner fight is far more civilized.

"As for uterine replicators - " He gives a little wave of his hand. "It's a mechanical incubator for infants. It makes it so that women no longer need to undergo the pain and danger of pregnancy and childbirth. Which, if you ask most of the women on this planet, is a marvelous thing. Strangely, if you ask the men, it's an abomination that results in freaks of nature. It's almost like they want to keep their control over the women. So curious."
