If I weren't a girl already I certainly wouldn't want to be one.
Wendla.
That's a matter of taste, I believe, Martha. I rejoice every day that I am a girl. Believe me, I wouldn't change places with a king's son.——That's the reason why I only want boys!
Thea.
But that's crazy, pure craziness, Wendla!
Wendla.
