Liberals believe make believe TV shows are real.
Oh but dressing up like a TV character is sooo much fun. Little minds are easily entertained.
Yep, time to switch to burqas.
“Handmaids in Atwood’s universe, for example, are only allowed to have sex when they’re being forced to by their masters, whose children they’re then supposed to carry. Here, in real America, women can have sex with more or less whomever they want — or not — and the restrictions cover only what happens next, which is exactly what Republicans eager for harsher rules seize on to argue that it’s ridiculous to suggest women can’t “choose.”
Maybe the point of the protests is that limiting reproductive freedom necessarily ends up limiting sexual freedom by pushing women toward abstinence, so the right to choose in one area isn’t worth much without the right to choose in the other. (Incidentally, that’s what made actress Alyssa Milano’s proposed “sex strike” so absurdly counterproductive.) But a cape and a bonnet will have trouble making that case without some help.”

THIS AUTHOR GETS IT!!
I thought they were displays for ketchup.
You know.....like the guy on the street corner wearing the chicken suit to advertise for a restaurant.
Those costumes made people feel alright...
...it made them feel that the pro-abortion side is a bunch of drama-queen nitwits that would rather sew together and wear a ridiculous outfit...
...than actually look at the horrible truth of abortion.
“Handmaid’s Tale” is faker than plain fiction - it’s idiotic nonsense. When I see some activist wearing the costume to me they are saying “I’m here to represent the idiotic nonsensical view.”
LOL They fret over this yet turn their backs to womens horrible real-world treatment under Islam.
Such as--
For adultery: Literally buried in holes up to their arms (with their arms down so they're buried too) and hit with big rocks by bearded, angry men until they're dead.
Forced to cover their bodies and faces with robes and veils or at least their hair with scarves. Whether they want to or not.
Can be beaten, even to death, by their husbands, for whatever reason he decides.
And these are the GOOD Muslim countries!
In Taliban Afghanistan, or Saudi Arabia, even killed for working or driving a car.
Question for Atwood fans...
Do you think Islamic women in Islamic countries can legally get an abortion? LOL!
That’s how they end up thinking that all guns are fully automatic and have magazines with an infinite number of Pew-Pews in them
And they get their news from late night chat show comics.
That’d be a great Burning Man alternative — light up a Handmaid!
Funny how the liberals overlook the fact that the original novel was about an Islamic leadership.
Here’s a fun list along that line for a Friday afternoon:

Missing:
When returning home from the grocery store, you’ve always bought a loaf of french bread;
After taking a cab, just reach into your pocket for the exact cash needed for the fare.
They don’t have to worry about
me hittin’ them. Maybe Laz. Even
then, menopause is long back in
their rear view mirrors.
Yes the sight of the handmaids made us feel.
It made me feel that those girls are playing dress up,and don’t have a grasp of reality. Among other things.
