I have a clipping from the 1950s about how to be a good wife, with all these things you have to do and have not to do, and so forth. And women read it and they say, “This is horrible.” And men read it and they say, “This sounds pretty good.” It contains gems like: “Never question your husband, he is the head of the household, even if he doesn’t come home all night. He knows what he’s doing. And you don’t have to know what he’s doing.”
The Testaments (The Handmaid's Tale, #2)
