Disagree. I think he's referring to the mother as a good factory. One certainly enters via one's mother. There's no other way so far as I'm aware.

Ah, I see. I was thinking of the actual breast as the food factory.

Mea culpa, mea culpa

Having once been a food factory myself, I got it right away.

Thank you in any case; I appreciate the attention, pedantic or not (in fact, I don't understand why pedant is even a slur). b_b got my intended meaning: I was objectifying the entire woman with the metaphor.
