Before this line, Jordan remarks that she’s “never seen a girl so mad about her husband,” it’s more like Daisy was mad with worry that her husband was off with some other woman.

Andrea A. Segarra Salcedo INGL 3221 KG1 Prof. Brenda Domínguez September 18, 2012. The intimate conjugal life in “The Storm” In the story “The Storm” by Kate Chopin, we can see the influence of her point of view regarding women’s sexual feelings that were so looked down upon at her time. In the late nineteenth century, women were not allowed to desire more in their life (entire aspect of it) that wasn’t to wait on their husband and children. This means that they had to put themselves last and forget what they wanted. Even when they had sex with their husbands, where they could not seek their pleasure, they just worked on satisfying their husbands’.
Both were worried about Calixta who is at home by herself waiting for the storm to pass as well. Alcee, who is Calixtas old boyfriend shows up and the two get romantically involved. When the storm passes Alcee leaves as if nothing ever happened. Needless to say the two don’t get caught and the situation is never spoke of again. Chopin uses different ironies to explain the characters abnormal behavior.
Other families have suffered losses because of the feud between these two families that lasted for generations. Most of these deaths would never have occurred if the two families were not fighting. Furthermore, Friar Lawrence told Lord Capulet that Juliet sought advice to avoid the marriage to Paris without disobeying her father; she even threatened to kill herself in his chamber if the Friar refused to help (5:3:236-241). Lord Capulet should not have yelled or threatened Juliet over an arranged marriage to Paris. He pressured her into drinking the concoction out of desperation.

The women in the novel are too shallow for our sympathy or admiration A character that can be described as being wholly shallow is Myrtle. We learn that she ‘lay down and cried’ after finding out her husband Wilson ‘borrowed somebody’s best suit to get married in.’ Myrtle is distraught after finding out her husband is not rich nor a ‘gentleman’, as he made little effort on their wedding day. In the broader scheme of things, this should not matter; however Myrtle seems fixated on this and concludes from this one situation that their marriage is doomed. The suit can be seen as being representative of Wilson – he will always be reliant on others to survive in his sorrowful world, as seen when Wilson is close to begging Tom not to sell the car elsewhere. Myrtle despises

Even though Juliet was already married to Romeo, she could have accepted her fate because of the hatred between the Montague and Capulet families. Yelling at her parents causes them to be mad at her, and lying makes the situation worse. Eventually, the choices the two “star-crossed lovers” made led to their
