[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Serena will be tempted next week. I'm very excited to see what she chooses. [/quote]

I'm pretty sure she won't betray her husband and Gilead, even if she is tempted. Remember she is one of the architects of this world, even if she has suffered in its execution. [/quote]

Yes, but I think she will take the deal.  I'm not sure she was ever beaten before.  Right now she is embarrassed and sad, but soon she will be pissed. [/quote]

I don’t know about never been beaten before— she seemed to know exactly what she was expected to do. [/quote]

Yep.[/quote]

But it’s ritualized violence so she might know the ritual without having been subjected to it before, right?  Even in today’s world, there are these wacky “Christian” sects that preach a form of ritualized violence to train women and children to be obedient.  I would imagine Serena is familiar with their version of that literature (and maybe even wrote it), but she’s never been disobedient before so never had to be disciplined in that manner.  I agree that it may result in a long-term rage, as she feels that Gilead’s goals (promoting live births and punishing “bad” women) have been twisted.  I wish there was a way to show her those state run whore houses—that would really piss her off![/quote]
