A Feminist Question: Margaret Atwood has written a far superior feminist…

- - - - Now that people have stopped retelling the story of the Odyssey so much Penelope is now able to tell her own story.
    - - Shows how women, slaves especialy were victum to all the demands of males.
  - - - Shows how males viewed females as a type of animal rather than something more valuable such as a lifelong partner which is valued in these times.
    - - Again refers to females as more of an animal to do as what the male partner wills, I this case "breed" to conceive sons in order to carry on the family name and fortune.
- - - - Societies expectation of mothers and what they should be acting like in order to raise their children properly. She punishes herslef for not being the perfect ideal mother talked about in society.
    - - SHows how she was trapped into lablelling herself as this statue in which society had set tasks for. Society placed a pressure on her to do these things and lable herself as 'widow' and make that status a lowly one
    - - Shows that how since a young age society planned a marridge to be the hsppiest and most important day in a womens life, it also shows the pressure society puts on women to have a child while they are still fertile, putting a pressure on them to marry to conceive children.
