This is how they always out themselves as never having read this novel that rustles their jimmies so badly. In the author's note, Atwood confirms that every policy in the novel has been historically enacted against women somewhere in the world. But that makes moids angry in the meatball that passes for the moid brain, so they simply don't accept that.Men literally act like Handmaid's Tale is erotic fanfiction for women when it's actually happening to women in the real world right now.
Never maintain so much as a friendship with a male who shits on Margaret Atwood. She doesn't write for men, has never been bothered by that, and is one of our most important postwar writers. Males who shit on Atwood are shitting on the description of the female experience. They are telling you to STFU and that our stories don't matter. Don't entertain them.
