About This Quote

This quote is about the idea that women will always be willing to get their hands dirty. The woman in the story, Calypso, is very unimpressed by Leo's comment. She thinks it sounds like he's just trying to get in her pants. She believes that people who go out of their way to get dirty are all really just after one thing: money.
