I wanted to love it more. The premise is good, but the narrative Fell short. 
the big concluison was, that if women were the powerful, the wouldnt abolish the system but work it in their favor being the cruel ones. Which, at least for me, isn  tje big new feminist thought.The rape scenes and the violence as a whole was too much for me.
