Topic Proposal

In the story the handmaid’s tale, it is confusing to me how if it is so difficult to become pregnant then why cant they sleep with whom they want to sleep with instead of the commander. Also I do not understand why the women can not be tested to see if they can become pregnant, instead of sleeping with a different commander every two years for a total of six years. These women can hardly have their own thoughts let alone be able to do their own thing.

The topic that I chose related to The Handmaid’s Tale is Polygamy in Islam. I think that this topic would be interesting because the way that the handmaids are treated is very similar to the Polygamy in Islam. The women are also under complete control. The men force them to cover there face and wear outfits that so not show any part of there body as well.
