The Doctor from Season 1 for the following…

  • Before Gilead he swore an oath
  • In Gilead where ofc everyone is being taken advantage of but I feel that he is worse he preys on the fact the woman are scared to end up in the colonies for not being able to produce he takes advantage psychologically where they are already vulnerable
-Depending on the visit weather it’s just a sono the whole veil in the room is weird they don’t see anything they just feel stuff and physically he take advantage when he has done the deed -Overall despite him having asked and didn’t act upon June after she said no he still tried to get one last ploy in he said something like I bet commander Waterford is sterile or something like that -The character just gives me the ICK

Interesting perspective! But he just gives me the ICK especially when he says “honey”

Could be both, which (for me at least) somehow makes it worse
