‘Maybe you better go along to your own house now. We don’t want no trouble’ this shows that the workers were cautious of being caught with Curley’s wife and sent her on her way to avoid conflict. Curley treasures his wife and if she were caught in any trouble, even if it was her fault, she’d be seen as innocent. Finally, Steinbeck also presents women as attractive and confident. The quotes ‘If he ain’t, I better look someplace else, she said playfully’ and ‘Hi, Good-lookin’.’ These show all the workers think Curley’s wife is attractive and she knows this, so she’s being confident with them.
She was a widow who lived to train and educate her children and was thought very highly of as a wise noble matron.

Della is selfless and caring about her money but Mathilda is selfish and self-centered with her money. In the first short story, Della is a caring woman who loves her husband and want to make him happy. Della shows this when she is selfless and cut her hair. “Will you buy my hair asked Della … twenty dollars said Madame” (O.Henry105). This shows that Della is willing to do anything to make her husband happy.
She’s just self-obsessed, and unable to judge herself and her position honestly. It seems at every chance she gets, Curley’s wife likes to talk about her lost opportunities. She speaks of a traveling actor who told her she could join their show, without gathering that this is a pretty standard pick-up line. Same with the offer to go to Hollywood: Curley’s wife has convinced herself that her mother stole the letter, rather than realize the men weren’t really interested in her for any actual talent. Curley’s wife’s obsession with herself ultimately leads to her death.

In the play, Gwendolen sets the image for a typical Victorian woman, along with her mother, Lady Bracknell. She has her personal values and ideals, and exhibits self- confidence. This can be proven by some of her lines in Act 1, like her first line “I am always right!” or “In fact, I am never wrong.” However, sometimes her over-confidence makes her look foolish. When she meets Cecily for the first time, she declares that they were going to be “great friends” and she has “likes her more than she can say”. Then when she suspects that Cecily is going to steal her fiancé, Gwendolen immediately switches her tone to saying that she “distrusted” Cecily from the first moment she saw her and that her “first impressions of people are invariably right”.

Goneril: “I love you more than words can wield the matter; / Dearer than eye-sight, space, and liberty; / Beyond what can be valued” (1.1.58-60). As she speaks the words that Lear wants to hear she appears to be an obedient daughter. McLeish (1985, as cited in Halenárová, 2015) describes Goneril as a woman full of ambitions and desires, and just like her father when she doesn’t get what she wants she becomes mean. She resembles her father in another aspect as well, she has a poor judgment of character she trust Edmund. When she gets her part of inheritance she totally forgets her father and orders her servants to treat Lear sternly: “Put on what weary negligence you please”.
