Hello,

We are working on a project for our LA class regarding The Handmaid's Tale. We are exploring the role of feminism in both the book and in today's society. Below are some questions regarding today's society and the theme of feminism and we would greatly appreciate any comment regarding any/all questions (please include the number you are responding to in your answer). Thank you!!!

 

  1. What is feminism?

  2. Difference between sexism and feminism?

  3. Why is feminism important?

  4. Who is a well known feminist? Can anyone be a feminist?

  5. What is the ideal Feminist Society?

    1. Equal gender representation or women bias?

    2. Who runs Society/ government?

    3. How would it be maintained? How would those who don't believe be treated?

    4. What is the path to this society from our current one?

    5. How is the Society run?

  6. Can this ideal Feminist Society ever be met?

    1. Realistic?
