looked to cities as sources of danger. They are thought to lack strong ties that provide social control, they harbor subcultures with evil lifestyles, economic fortunes are made and lost with little relation to Protestant virtue, sins of every sort are available, laziness and hypersexuality replace hard work, and mind-altering substances steal control of people's lives.

She feels that she is a burden to her husband because she dislikes the wallpaper and continues to complain about how much it bothers her. He refuses to change it making her blame herself for not being able to cope with the “dull” and “flamboyant” yellow wallpaper.
