This is what Winston's wife Katherine used to tell Winston when it was time to have sex. Winston calls Katherine "the human soundtrack". She is incapable of thinking about anything but the party. Although the sex act is offensive and abhorrent to Katherine, she saw it as her duty to produce an offspring for the party.
