The Handmaid’s Tale has become feminists most popular fetish. They can't stop thinking about it, referencing it and dressing up as handmaids.
But why?
Whats the appeal to them?
I will explain 👇
What I know about the story I have been told by the feminists commentating on my tweets.
In a world with fertility rates are falling, there are many mid at best left over women with no man. These women (handmaids) are used to produce babies for the rich and powerful men.
👇
In the strict religious world of the Handmaids Tale women are restricted, protected and can only go on shopping trips and make babies.
This world put an end to pornography, prostitution, and widespread violence against women.

Imagine that you are facing an unhappy marriage or even divorce. Or your children are rebelling, you dont know how to fix things.
How much would you be willing to invest to bring peace, trust and intimacy back into your marriage and family?
Most people just idly watch their families fall apart, unwilling to do anything including asking for help.
A divorce costs at least $20k per person. Getting the help they need to keep it healthy is less than half that. People need to realistically think investing in family.
Divorce costs are not just in the immediate lawyer fees.
💸2x the living expenses (now you have 2 homes)
💸therapy for you and your children to deal with it.
💸18+ years of child support
💸spousal support
💸court fees & lawyer costs to work out later disagreements
