Bitch Planet 1 Advance Review on NerdSpan: 

The key to Bitch Planet is that the steps it portrays as being taken are shocking, but they’re no different in their goals, or even their methods, to the forces that oppress women today. We don’t know the history of Bitch Planet’s universe yet. Its setting is clearly one in which the patriarchy has ceased to be a subtle force and become a more open one, but it is fundamentally the same force. Women who refuse to be compliant, who refuse to accept a subordinate role, who attempt to grow out of confining social structures are mocked, isolated, repressed and shunned by a system that relies on the collaboration of other women and men to suppress them, ostensibly on the basis of the oppressor’s interest. Bitch Planet lays this idea brutally bare, but it doesn’t invent it, or even significantly change it. It is metaphor, not hyperbole.
