Also, 'A Handmaid's Tale' gave me the creeps, in a very feminazi 'OMG overturning Roe v. Wade is a slippery-slope' way. Because it basically says biology=destiny. The few women left who can bear children (at least, I think that was a key point in the book? that disease left a crazy infertility rate?) became nothing more than uteruses under some crazy-ass pro-male theocracy.
Not like anyone's trying to set up a theocracy like that, oh no. :P I mean, shucks, God's kingdom's gonna be great, with the baby-spewing and stayin' at home and the Creationism and no science to get in the way of the Bible (KJV only plz!).
There was one time at James Miller's house where Matt Tucker and I started to watch this movie called "Hell Comes to Frogtown," starring Rowdy Roddy Piper. It was set in a futuristic dystopian world where some fallout of something or other had rendered a vast majority of men to be not only impotent but non-virile. And then this guy Sam Hell (ha) roves the countryside, raping women as he goes, and the government picks him up and charges him with the task of impregnating all the women, because omg if he's a rapist he must be able to get it up.
