IS POLITICS TABOO? --RESPONSES FROM THE READERS

Dear Readers,  I was thrilled to hear from you about Offred the Handmaiden's tale that her new beau refused to talk about politics.  Silence on this subject seems like a small sacrifice to a budding romantic relationship, but is it?   Here's a few of your heart-felt replies.  --SQ   

Dear Offred,  I guess Freedom of Speech isn't free in your house.  Bummer.  -Outspoken in Omaha.

Hey Offred and friends,  Whoa, ladies.  Back up, relax, reassess.  Maybe the poor guy just wanted to avoid an argument.  -Chillin' Charlie.

Dear Handmaiden,  Don't let him shut you up!  We women have come a long way fighting forever for equality.  Don't quit now.  Tell him what you need and hope he's the guy that wants to be your forever man.  -Quiet protestor

Dear Offred,  I think it's time to ask him if other topics are off-limits.  Better to know what you're up against now because it will be impossible to protest after your tongue's been removed and your voice silenced.    -Maryann from Miami.
