After Katherina was the perfect wife Petruchio placed bets on her and used her as a trophy. Publicly kissing and giving orders to Katherina made Petruchio feel like a manly man who would not be swayed by a woman. After all women “are bound to serve, love and obey” (Shakespeare 5.2.85). Katherina’s transformation in The Taming of the Shrew is a great example of the expectations for women in the past. Instead of being welcomed and popular for having a backbone women were shot down until they believed they were less than men.

The logic she uses in the essay “DEAR YOUNG LADIES WHO LOVE CHRIS BROWN SO MUCH THEY WOULD LET HIM BEAT THEM” are lines such as “There is nothing better than knowing the suffering can stop than knowing you must endure but if you no longer wish to do so, you don’t have to because it is safe to withdraw your consent. There is nothing better than knowing you have some control in a situation that feels so far beyond your control.”. These lines show how serious yet logical her thought process is when it comes to her ideas and points of what consent is. When Gay appeals to emotion in her essay she uses lines such as “I am sorry our culture has treated women so poorly for so long that suffering abuse to receive celebrity attention seems like a fair and reasonable trade. We have failed you, utterly.”.

You abide by their will, do what they want, speak when they want you to, and are basically there to just look beautiful and agree with your man. This shows, how women are not only oppressed and have an ideal image to live up too, but that some women are willing to accept these expectations, like Kate, who was once considered a “shrew” but is now the perfect wife. In retrospect, gender roles affect the characters negatively, because Kate ends up being the only woman who will obey because if she doesn’t she has to suffer. The Widow and Bianca however, believe the expectations they should follow are stupid which is why they don’t listen in the bet. Also, the gender roles surface in the beginning of the play when they meet Bianca, and at the end when Kate was shockingly tamed into the ideal

The attraction this female character portrays for Walter Neff is phenomenal, she has captured his attention by the way he glazes at her. As they are talking Walter introduces himself and soon after Phyllis asks how she could take out an accidental insurance policy on her husband’s life without his consent. By asking this of Walter we know that she is up to no good especially because she doesn’t want her husband to know. Neff infers that she is anticipating a murder and leaves because he does not want to be a part of it. Her sexuality has influenced Walter to the point he can’t get her out of his head and soon after she shows up to his apartment and that is when we see that he is no longer able to resist her.

On page 101 Atticus said, "But remember this, no matter how bitter things get, they 're still our friends and this is still our home." Atticus proves that you have to think of the other people who surround you before you give time to think of what’s best for you. He also is saying at times when we think things are going rough it could always be harder for the people around us; however, we just don’t know it. With that point he shows us the importance of how we treat others around us the same way we would want to be treated. Juror 8 said, “It 's not easy to raise my hand and send a boy off to die without talking about it first.

First, the housewives can be linked to lust, the first Deadly Sin, which is described as intense sexual desire. Almost all of the women in the town prove to be affected by a strong sexual desire, despite being married. For example, in the beginning, a woman watches as a man fixes her dishwasher, making sexual remarks and becoming annoyed when a saleswoman distracts her while she’s “busy”. In addition, after Edward arrives, all the women are intrigued by him and immediately become attracted to him, sexualizing his different and mysterious appearance and personality. Rather than accepting their behavior, Edward is instead frightened and becomes uncomfortable, revealing that he is contradicting the behavior of the sinful

Academics Gerding and Signorielli believe that social cognitive theory, is a strong aspect of gender role learning to tweens as they are old enough to watch television actively and selectively. The superficial notion of the women in the above shows explains the ‘girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do’ contradiction that pits women against each other to impress the male protagonists. The shows that have women as the central character aim to promote empowering notions of ‘sisterhood’ yet proceed in aggressive behaviours. The Kardashian’s show a paradox as each episode shows a fight between the sisters, over boyfriends, photo shoots or jealous behaviour and ends with a resolution. The

As a result of being very observant, she notices how people are quick to assume and are accustomed to labeling. She sees that people categorize each other based on physical appearance. Furthermore, the author believes that society should not get caught up in their preconceived notions they have of a particular group of people because she is walking proof stereotypes are inaccurate and problematic. She understands the normalization of stereotypes, as she has become used to it throughout her life, and wishes that society could look past external attributes.

It is likely that women get depression after pregnancy and birth, it is common. We don't know what they are going through. Therefore, for some appreciation to women we know and love, we need to learn some manners to show to the society we belong in so we are not disrupting in any way. To help the society grow in peace and help anybody and everybody in the best of our ability. Also to be thoughtful and respectful to all men in justice and

Probably the stereotype was essential in order for the audience to comprehend the joke of two friends being like a married couple having the real dilemma of housewives who have limited time for work because they are forced to take care of the children, and seek for help in their partner. It may seem ironic that a male character was chosen to represent this social group, but at the same time it shocks the reader and captures their attention, fulfilling the purpose of entertaining and causing laughter as a
