I haven't finished the book yet. I've just started chapter VII, but I couldn't wait until I've finished reading the entire book before writing my thoughts on it. I think Orwell's version of a totalitarian world was correct for the most part. But I believe he got it wrong when it comes to women. He believed that a totalitarian regime would try to use chastity among its members as a weapon of control. He envisioned a world of women who despised sex and only had intercourse as a duty to the state to beget children.
People like Orwell, at that particular time, thought the sexual liberation of women would be beneficial to society. I believe he thought that women would be competing for the attention of the average Joes of this world and that any man, regardless of looks or social standing, would get plenty of sex from women. Moreover, he thought women would be faithful to their spouse and wouldn't cheat with a more virile man. Orwell, even though he was extremely intelligent, lacked the sagacity to see the big picture.
We all know that things didn't play out the way he had imagined. What happened, in reality, was the complete opposite: they allowed women to be sexually promiscuous, and that destroyed traditional family values and the Christian western world. Women used to be the pillar of the household; they were the ones responsible for raising the children while the husband was away at work. The end of women's traditional role in society marked the end of a successful alliance between men and women. The teamwork which had secured the success of the human race during countless tribulations over the centuries has collapsed.
The so-called sexual revolution turned the world back to a primal state in which only a handful of men got to reproduce. A lot of men can no longer find a suitable woman to share their lives with. Women have ridiculously high standards and only want the top 10% of men. This whole situation, which has been getting worse since the 1960s, was overly exacerbated by the advent of social media and dating apps. Personality no longer matters in today's world. The only thing that matters is how good you look in a picture and how popular you are.
I think George Orwell couldn't have imagined that society would get this bad. He wrote in a time where computers did not even exist. He almost got it right. What scares me is that not even a genius or a talented novelist could imagine a world so nasty as the one we live in. Our reality is much worse than any work of fiction.
