Men and women tend to have VERY different ideas of what constitutes rape to their respective biological sexes, but it generally arrives at the same conclusion: unwanted, undesired, violent penetration. Men represent the largest number of rape victims (primarily due to prison rape by other men) all over the world. A

Thank you! I’ve been trying to figure out how this is rape, and I can’t do it.  Luke was, in no way, overpowered or helpless.  He was essentially giving her what she wanted.  

June is apparently not as important as she thinks she is.

This was the closest the show has gotten to Lifetime. I really didn’t need the General Foods International Lost flashbacks. Literally all that happens is Moira gets June on the boat. They go to Canada. That’s all. Ludicrous moments are added. What kind of rescue or relief effort doesn’t involving actually rescuing

Every boss I’ve ever had.

Aunt Superior jumped the gun...

Nevermind, just get me a glass of hot fat, and bring me the head of Alfredo Garcia while you’re out there ...

Great point!

I thought it was terrible and completely unrealistic.

They might all be dead from the bombing.

The ending made no sense.

I  know it was supposed to be poignant or moving, but that ending was the most ridiculous thing I’ve seen since Spielberg’s War of the Worlds when Tom Cruise’s son showed up at the end.

You call people who don’t believe what you choose to believe: deniers.  What does this sound like?

I always assumed that map was indicating nuclear strikes, not nuclear plants, so it could be that the plants went to overload, thus the irradiated soil. That’s possible, but a nuclear plant in meltdown would produce much more devastation than a nuclear strike, and if several of these plants overloaded, the whole of

I would’ve been pleased if, instead of blowing the guy, she chopped his dick off and shoved it down his throat. Who is this guy? How does he have this kind of hold on these people? This is a mini-Gilead in all but name!  How come the ladies don’t rise as one and rip him to pieces?

Frankly, I don’t think Janine forgave her; not that it was ever her place to forgive. It wasn’t. This is something June will have to reconcile. Janine indicated she was willing to do anything, whether that means aborting your kid during a global crisis or blowing a guy for a piece of bread, therefore Janine’s position

Boy, you’re just a big ball of sunshine, aren’t you?  Misogyny is not exclusive to gender, either.

It’s my understanding several key officials in the U.S. Military were members of Gilead and then launched nuke after the attacks in D.C. destroying whole sections of the U.S.A., thus the irradiated soil in the Colonies.

There is an enormous inconsistency in Janine’s story. The birth rate has plummeted. The human race is on the verge of extinction. Fertile women would be encouraged to have babies to term. The babies would (or could) be fostered by the State as wards, or put up for adoption. The mothers can receive payments (and other
