[quote=Anonymous]I think it would be harder to control Handmaids if there was the possibility they could be elevated to Wives. How do you hold down a woman to be raped by your husband and then take away her newborn if you think that in two years, she might be your peer?

If you’ve ever read The Rainbow Cadenza
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rainbow_Cadenza
you’ll notice that the author avoided this problem, by forcing ALL women between certain ages serve a couple years as state sex slaves/comfort women. After this service, the women rose in social stature. The women who were shamed and punished were those who refused to serve. Thus, no animosity between the female governing elite (gynecracy?)

BTW, extreme trigger warning if you read The Rainbow Cadenza. Rape and sexual exploitation are at the heart of it. I read it along with THT in college and was physically ill for days afterwards. Sometimes, some incel asshole or the other proposes a system similar to that in the novel so be careful googling it, too.[/quote]
