Janine uses the "Just World Fallacy" to help cope with the fact her baby was born with defects. She believes that because she got impregnated by the doctor instead of the Commander this was her punishment.

The Commander was referring to a past where men began thinking of themselves as useless compared to woman who were able to provide for themselves and were becoming more independent. So in response women were put back in there original role as a bearer and caretaker for children and that's all.

Luke is forced to call their cat "it" so that he does not have an emotional connection to it. By not giving the cat a name or even acknowledging which gender it may be shows how powerful of a grasp the government has over it's citizens. Risking the eye's catching him with it is very likely risking his life as well.

The Commander means that the women are very safe since any interaction with men have been taken away. I don't agree with this idea because now the women are living miserable lives and would probably want to end their lives, they don't care about the "safety."

# data[].attributes.body
She uses it because she feels guilty since she knows she made a mistake. She took the risk of letting the doctor have sex with her and she ended up having a baby with birth defects. She is upset with herself because she should've just slept with the Commander. She thinks the baby with the defects is her penalty for making the wrong choice.

# data[].attributes.body
The Commander says this because he didn't like that the women had so much independence and were at times able to have more power over men. He thought the "gender roles" were all wrong so in the new society he gave men way too much power and barely any to women. I disagree with his reasoning and I think he made poor choices...he's weak enough already since he can't even keep his family, he cheats, and doesn't give attention to his wife.

Serena gives Offred an offer to sleep with Nick. She does this because her and Offred are having thoughts that the Commander is sterile. I think Serena is dying to have a baby and is mainly doing this for herself, it helps her more than Offred. I think Offred can trust Serena with this because she was the one who told her she can sleep with Nick.

# data[].attributes.body
When they realize Luke must kill the cat, he begins to call it an "it" to try to detach any feelings he had. This is exactly what the government is doing to the poor girls. They are renamed and are seen as "nonhuman."

# data[].attributes.body
He means that the "Safety" offered by this society makes it worth taking away almost all of women's freedom. I believe this is a bad argument because if life is so miserable it dosen't matter weather your safe or not because its not worth living.

# data[].attributes.body
She uses it to blame herself for sleeping with the doctor. The reason she dose this is likely because she is trying to cope with the fact that is always the women's fault in this society.

# data[].attributes.body
He seems to think that when women had independence it did not allow met to truly live to their full potential and that they suffered from it.

I believe she should trust Serina in this case because Serina really wants a kid and it is in her best intrest to help Offred.

He must not think of that cat as another sentient being and refers to the cat as "it". This shows how the government is pushing them to extreme circumstances. This seems to correlate with how we have previously discussed it was like.

# data[].attributes.body
The Commander means that women are safer now because they can't be harmed by men since now they can't even interact at all. This argument sucks because societal evolution should never regress but be amended for the better of everyone

# data[].attributes.body
She uses the "Just World Fallacy" to blame herself for the defective baby. She believes this since she slept with the doctor to get pregnant and this was her punishment. Offred suspects this since whenever there's something wrong with the pregnancy, it must be the woman's fault

# data[].attributes.body
He means that now men don't get to date, marry or be truly in love anymore. There's no one to impress or share feelings with so they just felt nothing.

The commander thinks women are safer now because they have no freedom. They cannot be in any dangerous situations with men so that problem is entirely eliminated.

Janine uses the "Just World Fallacy" when she feels guilt for things she has done. I blames herself for the fact that her baby has birth defects. She feels guilty for having a baby with the doctor instead of her commander.

# data[].attributes.body
The commander means that women are safe now, unlike before where they could go and do whatever they want people watch over them to be safe. Even though they have no freedom they are in better situations and won’t have to worry about crime and be in dangerous situations with men. I think this argument is far from correct because women should have the right to do whatever they would like, but in this book women have no choices to make on their own.

# data[].attributes.body
The commander means that men and women were not playing their right roles. The women had lots of power and sometimes even over the men, which made them want to go back to having their specific roles of men being more powerful than women. I think that he doesn’t justify the new society because she doesn’t act like a real man. He has a wife and wants to start a family but has sex with other women and doesn’t pay any attention to his wife.

# data[].attributes.body
Serena offered to help Offred by having her to have sex with someone else to get pregnant. Serena is doing this all for herself just so she is able to have a child. I don’t believe that Serena can be trusted because she is only doing this for herself. Serena is much more powerful then Offred making Offred able to do whatever Serena wants her to or else she could get in trouble.

# data[].attributes.body
The Commander is talking about the single life and dating life of women and saying society has given them more, by setting them up with arranged marriages, and keeping them safe from bars, then taking away, their freedoms. I can see how the Commander believes this argument because the women may be safer but it is unfair that they have their freedom taken away.

# data[].attributes.body
Offred realized that Luke calls the cat “it.” This wipes all meaning from the cat by not calling it a her or him. The government has so much control of them to make them do whatever they need them to do. The government views the people as things instead of human beings. This relates to some discussions that we have had in class about black mirror episodes, when they people didn’t see other people the same, only as things.

# data[].attributes.body
Serena allows Offred to try to sleep with Nick since they both realize that the Commander might be sterile and they both need a pregnancy. I think Serena can be trusted in this situation since she will benefit if they get away and if Offred fails, it's no skin off her back.

# data[].attributes.body
The commander is saying that women now have an easier life compared to before. He is saying this because before women would go through misery to get the attention from a man and now that there is arranged marriage, that doesn't happen anymore.

# data[].attributes.body
Janine uses this phrase when blaming herself for her child's defects and her miscarriage. She believes these are both due to the fact that she had that baby with the doctor and not her Commander. Offred suspects the reason she is doing this is because Janine sees no meaning in her life anymore.

# data[].attributes.body
The commander believes that women have it easy now since arranged marriages have became a thing. They also don't have to go out and meet people anymore

# data[].attributes.body
He is saying that men have given women more than they've taken away. He's saying the contant attention women would seek to find a parter and what they had to do to find a partner is now gone because it's a simple assigned man the women get, they don't have to attract or fight for any anymore. I do not think this argument is strong whatsoever because it takes womens' rights away and forces them into doing things they do not want to do without their own opinions.

# data[].attributes.body
The commander is justifying the new society and the restrictions that have been put on women by saying that by using the women for nothing more than household chores and having kids, the men are now providing more for the women. In that they are giving the women more than what was actually taken away from them.

# data[].attributes.body
Janine used the phrase "Just World Fallacy" because she blames herself for the baby having defects. She blames herself also for sleeping with the doctor and not the commander. Offred believes she is blaming herself because of what society taught her.

# data[].attributes.body
Janine uses the phrase "Just World Fallacy" as a way to blame herself for her baby's defect. Janine got pregnant with the doctor instead of with her commander. She is blaming herself for choosing the doctor. Offred believes that she is blaming herself because in this world everyone makes it seem like it's the handmaids fault if anything goes wrong in a pregnancy.

# data[].attributes.body
She uses this as she is blaming herself for her baby dying. She says that this was meant to happen as it was her fault that it was the doctors baby and not her commanders. Offred suspects that she believes its her fault because women are usually blamed for when something goes wrong and its always there f

# data[].attributes.body
Janine uses the phrase to make it known that she blames herself for her miscarriage and birth defects given to her child because she used the doctor instead of her Commander to have the child. She blames herself completely and Offered suspects the reason she does this is because she doesn't see as much meaning to her life anymore.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think he sufficiently justifies the new society. He said "you can't make an omlette without breaking eggs". I think things would have been fine beofre gilead.

# data[].attributes.body
The Commander was saying that in the old society women were too independent and that men were useless. Now he thinks this new society is much better because women are put back in their place and are dependent on men. I think he justifies this society poorly and should have enough masculinity that he doesn't feel threatened by the independence of women.

# data[].attributes.headline
Janine used the "Just World Fallacy" as a way to cope with her baby coming out with defects. It is easier for her to just come up with excuses as to why the child is they way it is then to actually accept the fact that is nature. She believes it is her fault, because the other women are convincing her it is.

The Commander is saying women have it easier in Gilead now that arranged marriages are a thing. He argues that it is easier because they don't have to go out and have the stress of meeting people on dates or in bars. His argument is flawed because it is completely restricting their freedom to interact and socialize with people of their choosing. Instead they are being forced upon one man.

# data[].attributes.body
The commander is saying that men have given more to woman then they took away. He is reffering to the struggles that woman had to go through to find partners. They have simply taken away the choice and as a result this "issue" has gone away. This heavily realates to the ideas of "freedom to" and "freedom from". He believe that "freedom from" is better and as a result believes he has given more. I heavily disagree with this argument because people should have the freedom to do whatever they want. It is a very stupid argument.

# data[].attributes.body
He's referring to how the men felt "lesser" than women in society. Women had the oppertunity to provide for themselves and do what they wanted to a point where men started feeling useless and angered. I think this reasoning is unjust and simply not right because men didn't have to feel "lesser" than women, they just had to feel equal to them in the sense that they both had freedom to do  what they wanted. Now with women having all of their rights and dignity taken away to make men feel better, society is torn apart and not justified at all no matter how the Commander puts it.

Serena offers to help Offred have the chance to sleep with Nick because of how badly she wants a baby. I think she can be trusted because of how badly she wants this child, there's not much left to be jeopardized.

# data[].attributes.body
What the commander is saying is that in the old world they didn't have to work as hard for what they wanted. Intimacy is very scarce in the new world and the men have to work hard to get it. I think it explains the society, but it's not actually justified. In the new world they are trying to set gender stereotypes again.

The commander is saying that the society has transformed the way it has, because previously, the men fet insignificant and unimportant since women were capable of taking care of and providing for themselves. To make men feel significant again, they decided to supress the women. In my opinion it is not the womens' faults for the men feeling this way and they should not be treated like

Janine uses the phrase "Just World Fallacy" because of her miscarriage and birth defects. Unlike Offred, Janine decided to use the doctor as a way to get pregnant. As a result, she blames herself for what has happend and now believes that her life without babies would have no meaning. All of the other woman are blaming her and after hearing the same thing enough time she believes that it is true.

# data[].attributes.body
Janine immediately blames herself before anyone else for her baby's defect and the fact that she got pregnant with the doctor and not her own commander. She is blaming herself for the wrong reasons because in this new society it is common for the handmaids and marthas to be blamed for almost everything.

# data[].attributes.body
The Commander is saying that in the new world things are much less intimate. In the old world men did not even have to try and were given whatever they wanted. In the new world intimacy is much rarer and basically non existent. I believe the Commander is beginning to realize the flaws in the new world.

Serena suggest that Offred should try to have a baby with another man since she couldn't have a baby with the commander. I think she can be trusted since she is trying so hard for a baby.

Serena offers to help set Offred and Nick up, so that Nick can help get Offred pregnant and Serena can have a child. Even though Serena seems desperate to have a child, and willing to go to any lengths, I don't think she should be trusted. She has proven to not had Offred's best wishes in mind before and is only concerned with her ovaries.

# data[].attributes.body
Serena has become extremely desperate to have a child at this point. As a result, she offers Offred the chance to sleep with Nick so that they can have a baby. I do believe she can be trusted because of how desperate she is. All she wants is a baby which she cannot have and is willing to go to the extreme.

The commander means that men don't have much to look forward to in marriage anymore because of the new rules in society. Now men aren't able to feel the love they want with their wives as it isn't looked upon by the society anymore. It sounds like he is saying that the new society isn't good and that there are flaws in it. One of those flaws being that men mainly work without much else to do.

# data[].attributes.body
The Commander says men in the past never had to work for their goals and had endless accomplishments. When women started gaining more power, the men felt as if they had to work for everything instead of getting it handed to them. This new society was supposed to be a return to stereotypical gender roles.

Luke has to call the cat "it" to make sure he has no connection to it making it easier to kill. It shows that the government is in fully control and power over everyone and Offred is the one who starts to realize how manipulated she is by the government. This related to the Black Mirror epiode with the roaches because the government in that epiosde blinds their soldiers to unwillingly kill becasue they can't see the truth which is very similar to the Handmaid's Tale.

Serena offers to help get Offred pregnant by arranging something with Nick. I think because she is so desperate to have a kid she can be trusted especially since she wouldn't want this child to be taken away also.

# data[].attributes.body
Serena gives Offred the option of getting pregnant through Nick because Serena also tried with the commander and she was not able to get pregnant in the past. Because the thought is that he is sterile this is the best offer. She should be trusted because as we've seen, Serena has been very desperate to have a child and would do anything.

Once Luke realized he had to kill the cat before escaping, he decided to call the cat "it" so he wouldn't feel much emotion. This relates to what the government is doing because they treat the women like objects and give them names based off who their commander is. This also relates to the black mirror episode where the soldiers have MASS implants in their heads which make them see humans as roaches.

# data[].attributes.body
Before kiiling the cat, Luke must detatch himself from the cat, by calling the cat "it." By doing this he is making an excuse why it is okay to kill the cat. This gives Offred insight into what the government is up to. She realizes that if people are capable of treating other people or living animals as objects instead of a life, they will be much more willing to act out against that thing.

# data[].attributes.body
Before escaping Luke decides he must kill the cat, but to make it easier he starts calling the cat "it" rather than it's name to diminish any emotion and make the killing easier. Offred realizes this is exactly what the government does by giving them numbers and names based on their Commander so there is less emotion and attachemnt.

# data[].attributes.body
She realized that Luke must kill the cat so that her meows don't alarm anyone that June & Luke escaped. She really realized this when Luke referred to the cat as "it" to make the killing as impersonal but still respectful. Perhaps the government is now taking their pets away since June comments how, "That's one of the things they do. They force you to kill, within yourself." Anyway, this is like how the Commanders and Wives call their Handmaids by impersonal names.

# data[].attributes.body
She realized that Luke had to start calling the cat it and not the cats name so it would be easier to kill with no emotion. This is similar to what the government is doing because they degrading women into objects just to have healthy children by force. They are given the names of their commander which gives off no emotion. This situation is similar to the Roaches in Black Mirror because they are outcasted in society and used as a symbol of danger.

# data[].attributes.body
When Offred, Luke and their daughter were trying to escape they realized they had to kill their cat. They called the cat "it" to try and take the emotion away. Offred thinks the government is turing people into killers. This also relates to the episode of White Mirror when the members of the army were chipped and it made them kill without emotion.

# data[].attributes.body
The commander means that men have given these women much more then they had before by not making them go through the trouble of singles bars and dating. Now they just took that choice away and there is only arranged marriages. I think his argument is dumb because they took away their freedom of choice and he thinks that it is a good thing.

# data[].attributes.body
Serena offers to help Offred to get pregnant by telling her that she could help get her pregnant by Nick. Based on the situation I think that it might be possible that she is asking truthfully and will follow through because of her desire for a baby. When Serena said that other wives had done this before I believe that she was telling the truth and letting Offred know that this has been done before

# data[].attributes.body
Janine uses this by blaming herself for her baby being born with a defect. She also blames herself for having the baby with the doctor and not the commander. She fully takes the blame because all the women are already blaming her. Offred suspects that she is doing this because that is what she was taught to do in this society and because she believes that she is not important.

# data[].attributes.body
The commander means that the men were not struggling for anything and felt unimportant because of all the women empowerment. He didnt like how women were able to take care of themselves and build a life without men. He justifies this new society by saying that is returned everyone into their "right" gender roles which is obviously completely wrong.

# data[].attributes.body
Serena offers Offred to let her sleep with Nick because she believes her husband is sterile as well.  I do not believe she can be trusted because she has shown many times that she does not like Offred so she could be doing this just to hurt her. But on the other hand, she really wants a baby and maybe she would do anything to get it.

# data[].attributes.body
Offred realizes that Luke must take the emotion out of having to kill the cat by calling it an "it". This gives the insight that the government is doing this as well with the people who they decide to kill. This relates to the black mirror episode with the army because of the MASS chip they implant in the soldiers head desensitizes them and helps them kill easily.

# data[].attributes.body
The Commander is basically saying that they have given single women so much and made the process easier for them. They did not have to go to single's bars or blind dates, they had it all taken care of them in the way of arranged marriages. Although I don't agree with this argument because while "making it easier for women", they're also taking away the freedom of chose for women. Many cultures in today's world still do arranged marriages, and yet some of those women still wish to have the freedom to chose who they can be with.

# data[].attributes.body
Janine blames the fact that her child has a defect, and her eight month miscarriage on her own flaws and for using the doctor instead of her Commander. She takes the full blame because all of the women who are already blaming her. Offred believes that Janine is doing that because Janine believes her life has no meaning.

# data[].attributes.body
The Commander means that in the old world, the men never had to work for anything, they were basically given or could buy anything they want. In this new world, the men have to work towards getting what they want, like intimacy. They aren't intimate with their wives and certainly aren't with the handmaids. They miss what they used to have. I think he does explains the society well, but i don't think anything in this society is justified. Everything is based off government gain and the gain of higher members of society, not your average citizen.

# data[].attributes.body
Serena offers to Offred and setting up her and Nick so she could possibly get pregnant. Serena also suspects her husband to be fertile. I think there is a lot of risk going with this proposition, but Offred doesn't have much time so there isn't much of an option. I don't think Serena is a very trustworthy character but as Offred said, "It's my life on the line; but that's where it would be sooner or later" (Atwood 206). I think Serena also really wants a child because if she didn't I don't think she would have offered to find a photo of Offred's daughter.

She realizes that he calls that cat "it" before he kills it, so he won't feel much emotion after he performs the act. She then says that the because of the government they are turning into people that kill because of this. This relates to that one black mirror episode when the army had microchips in their heads that allowed them to see the roaches as monsters instead of people.

# data[].attributes.body
Offred realizes that before Luke kills the cat he must refer to it rather then its name or gender. This helps to remove the emotion and connection he might have had with this cat, to make killing it easier. The government makes them "to kill, within yourself" (Atwood 193). She realizes how the government has so much control, they have the ability to make you do things you never would have done otherwise. This is similar to the Black Mirror episodes when they control the Amry soldiers and their emotions, to remove their remorse and make killing the enemy easier.

# data[].attributes.body
The Commander is referring to the women in society, saying that he is giving them more than they had before Gilead. Now they are safe from places like single bars and the societal pressure to have a man. His argument is flawed because he is not thinking about the freedom that he has taken away which is the biggest factor of them all.

# data[].attributes.body
Janine blames herself for her child having a defect. She also blames herself for becoming pregnant with the doctor instead of her Commander, even though the baby's defect is not her fault. Offred suspects that she does this because in the society the handmaids are blamed for everything (even when it is not their fault). Janine is blaming herslef for every little thing because that is what the society has taught her to do.

# data[].attributes.body
The Commander was saying the men felt insignificant with all the women empowerment. With women being able to take care of themselves, the men had no real role in society. This in no way justifies the society, but to men like the Commander it is the only justification they can offer. That does not give them the right o enslave all women and create this society.

# data[].attributes.body
When saying this quote, the Commander is referring to women. They are safe from any crime however, they lost their freedom. They are then faced with the question of, "Would you rather have freedom or safety?" They are not judged based on their looks or attitudes, they are just used for one thing, pregnancy.

# data[].attributes.body
Serena offers the option of Offred having a baby with Nick because she thinks the Commander is Sterile. I do not believe that Serena is to be trusted because of the power she exhibits over Offred. It seems strange that she suddenly cares about Offred, and I think that is might be a trap. Serena doesn't like Offred and Offred could get into a lot of trouble for doing something like that.

# data[].attributes.body
Janine used the "Just World Fallacy" because she blames herself for the deformity of her child, which is not her fault. Offered suspects that the reason Janine used those words are because she rather admit and take the blame for something rather than admit that there is no meaning to her life. By taking the blame, this lets Janine have some sort of control over her life when in reality, there is no control over that and the Handmaids have no control over anything.

# data[].attributes.body
The Commander explained how men used to feel like nothing, had nothing to struggle for, nothing to hold their interest. Women were becoming more successful and there were much more feminists. He tries to justify this by explaing how this new life put women back in their "correct" roles, while men stay superior.

# data[].attributes.body
Before Luke can kill the cat, he had to refer to the cat as an it, taking out the feeling. If he thought of the cat as an it and not a he/she, it would make the act of killing easier. This is just what the government is doing. They are thinking about the people they are enslaving, torturing, and executing as its. To them they are not people but objects that can be used. That gives them a form of justification. This relates to many discussions we have had in class with an authority power oppressing a group of people, but not seeing them as real human beings with emotion.

# data[].attributes.body
Serena explains to Offred how the Commander might be sterile and suggests Offred should try another man, Nick. I am not sure if Serena should be trusted because she has little respect for Offred and has never showed any signs that she has a liking for Offred. However, Serena is extremely desperate for a child and would do anything, including offering Offred another man.

# data[].attributes.body
In order for Luke to kill their cat, they had to call it an "it" so it could make the killing less meaningful and personal. This gives an insight about what the government is doing because they do not view people as real people, they learn to take the value out of their life and to just view them as things. This relates to the episode of Black Mirror when the government wanted to kill a good portion of the population and in order to do so without feeling remorse, they had to make the people look like roaches so it was easier to kill them.

The Commander explains that this new way of life will help women feel like they are all equal and that their looks don't matter anymore. They won't have to try to impress anyone anymore and change their bodies to fit in or look acceptable to society. They won't have to go through bad marriages and get divorced or be in a dangerous relationship where they were abused. In order for these women to be protected from the dangers in relationships and in trying to fit in, their freedoms are being taken away. They can no longer make their own choices and they can't express themselves.

Janine blames herself for the way her baby turned out. She had a miscarriage before this child so she thought that it was for being sinful that she used a doctor and not her Commander. She also blamed herself because people in this society think that a handmaid's life has no plot or meaning to it so they blame them for everything.

# data[].attributes.body
The Commander thought that men felt powerless when more women were becoming more successful and were trying to live their lives without men dominating them. They established this new society to place men and women back into their gender roles where men were powerful and were leaders of households and women did everything for them. Since there are so many new rules, men and women aren't able to freely be in a relationship and fall in love like they used to be able to do.

She tells Offred that she could help her get pregnant from another man. Offred mentions a doctor but Serena says she can arrange something with Nick because he could be trusted and he had been with them for a while so he is loyal.

Luke said he would take care of it. You have to turn something into an it and first do it in your head and then make it real. This made her realize that in order to change society, they had to plan it out and make people seem like they don't matter anymore. If they viewed them like this, then they wouldn't care about what they do to them or what they have to go through.

By saying this quote, the commander is referring to women's lives. By giving women safety, it eliminates things like rape and assault, but it comes with a cost. Women no longer have freedoms, but he is justifying this because they are safe and protected. Again, this view on life is twisted and sick, a common theme going on in this novel.

By saying this quote, the commander is referring to the fact that men were not living out their lives the right way, and were dissatisfied with the new feminist movements and were afraid of women in power. They could no longer love and life just was not the same. He tries justifying this by saying that this new life projectiles men into traditional power roles, while women went back to their old roles, which clearly is not the right way to go.

Killing the cat is only easy if the cat is turned into an "it" rather than a he or she. By doing this, it is supposed to make the killing easier because it is now not like the rest. The leaders of this government can easily kill people just because they view them as things, rather than people. This relates directly to the Black Mirror episode with the roaches, as people were not viewed as actual people in both cases.
