Posting to Instagram with the playful photo, Elisabeth captioned the snap: \"Been doing it before it was cool.\"<\/p>\n
The actress was using the mask to encourage people to wear one to help stop the spread of covid-19, however, on the show, the reasons for wearing one are much more stark.<\/p>\n
Set in a dystopian near-future, women have become chattel whose sole purpose is to either make babies, if they can, and be completely subservient to the patriarchal governing system.<\/p>\n
The masks are used as a way to silence women as part of the various forms of ritualistic punishment for disobedience or independent thought, speech and action throughout the series.<\/p>\n
The show The Handmaid's Tale, based on the books by Margaret Atwood, takes place in a near-future where human reproduction is a tiny fraction of what it used to be.<\/p>\n
