TARSHI’s platform featuring writing on sexuality: We work towards cultivating safe, inclusive, and self-affirming spaces in which all individuals can express themselves without fear, judgement or shame.
The Handmaid’s Tale leads one to re-examine these two forms of social hierarchy that women have to navigate: one where they apparently have equal sexual rights as men but have to bear most of the brunt of unwanted pregnancies, reproductive burdens and the like, and the other extreme where their decisions including those about sexual identity and procreation are institutionalised and they are robbed of all agency and autonomy.
