THE HANDMAID’S TALE SEASON 2 IS GAYER, BUT NOT BETTER
The Handmaid’s Tale Season 2 Is Gayer, but Not Better. How four queer fans thk wrers uld fix a show that lov to torture s gays whout really unrstandg them. It attempts to flh out issu om Season 1, cludg how homosexualy functns the Gilead universe.
Lena Wilson: So, we’re all here bee we’re some flavor of gay and we watch The Handmaid’s Tale. Alex Barasch: I’m a gay trans guy, and both of those aspects of my inty have impacted my viewg experience to a certa extent. I never watch TV shows as a not-gay person, so I’m always hopg for a good gay storyle.
I love that The Handmaid’s Tale has at least two gay ma characters, though one—Moira, played by my te love Samira Wiley—gets far ls screen time Season 2 than she did Season 1.
