Ludlow's definitions

handmaiden

A woman who is perceived by a radical feminist as supporting "the patriarchy" by her actions or opinions, regardless of the woman's actual position.

Often used as a 'get out of jail free card', labeling a woman as a handmaiden allows her position to be dismissed without further critical analysis or counteracting any arguments.
I consistently dislike what she writes as it is inevitably pro-patriarchal handmaideny nincompoopery.

I'm going to suggest she's been drinking the Handmaiden Communion Wine.

All it is to be a handmaiden is to carry out the whims of the patriarchy.

George W. Bush

a leader great enough to be included in a group with Washington, Lincoln, and Reagan
Liberals hate Bush only out of desperation and a raw inability to perceieve the world as it actually exists.

Condoleezza Rice

professor turned high-ranking foreign policy official in the current White House; perhaps one of the most brilliant Americans to ever work in government; quite possibly the next POTUS
If Condoleezza Rice ran for the presidency, I would absolutely vote for her.
