fascinating population i just discovered: europeans (who generally think americans are backwards savages fot not having free healthcare) who get unreasonably condescensing and abrasive against americans who feel "entitled" to free water at restaurants.

so within the universe of Dune, gender roles abide by a rigid false dichotomy created by the bene gesserit - men lead the noble houses, while the women may join their order, and the powers of both are kept intentionally separate. at the same time, the plot demonstrates repeatedly that the role of paul atreides as a character is that of the border between the concepts juxtaposed within dichotomies: he is both an outerworlder and fremen, both harkonnen and atreides, both a duke and a disciple of the bene gesserit.
