if i wanted to hear about a society where disability is tied to the idea of personal moral failings, men are treated as superior beings who not only are able to sexually harass people without consequence but still get what they want in the end, the most important part of the story of a woman is her getting pregnant, and old people are considered useless wastes of space that are better off killed, i would have simply went outside
