In Handmaid's Tale, the environment has basically gone to shit and the women have to pay for it. How, you ask? Well, they become baby-making machines. Yes, women have always had that special talent, but this time it's against their will. In many countries, that is a woman's primary duty. In the U.S, it's a choice.We know that gender exists, but how long until it becomes a memory?

"I'm not lesbian, but i'm dating a woman." Wait, What? Yes, that's right. Jesica Tenaglia, 24, believes that she fell for her partner because of her personality, not because of her gender. "I saw past the fact that she was a female. I think a lot of people are starting to do that. Because so many lines are blurred now, I really don't know how to act differently with a male. I dont love her because she's a female, I love her because of the way she loves me. No guy has treated me like she has. I think people just want to be loved. If she were a male, I would feel the same way. People in our generation are starting to get that." If the future of our country starts to embrace this way of thinking, what exactly does that mean? Will gender all together cease to exist?

Many schools have begun to include gay/lebian couples in their story books to teach children that they have a choice of sexuality. Being so taboo only 50 years ago, there really is no telling just what changes may come with such a radical society.
