She is looked down upon by the rich for being a governess, and she believes she will never marry Rochester because of his more privileged position. Although Jane makes a success of her life through sheer force of will coupled with a lucky inheritance, the novel does not offer a solution to those in a similar position, wishing to break the bounds of social convention. Jane is seen to be inferior to her Aunt and cousins. As a result of Jane’s parents’ death, she is brought up by her Aunt Reed, who regards her as an inferior due to her late father’s occupation as a clergyman. Jane’s cousin, Master John, discovers her reading a book from ‘his’ bookshelf, and assaults her.

The idea Mabel’s love for Dr.Fergusson Is genuine, is not likely. Mabel showed no attempts to be independent and no had fear of being broke because she had an unmentioned plan. A plan that kept the need to work out of the equation and gave her money, “But so long as there was money, the girl felt herself established, and brutally proud, reserved.” This plan would not be exposed because “Mabel had no associates of her own sex, after her sister went away.
Typically, a husband who can’t consummate a marriage should be abandoned without hesitation. When Bertrande is “urged by her relatives to separate from Martin, she firmly refuse[s]” (28). This decision reveals Bertrande’s “certain character traits…a concern for her reputation as a woman, a stubborn independence” (28). Bertrande cleverly calculates the advantages she possesses as a result of Martin’s incompetence. “Her refusal to have her marriage dissolved…freed her temporarily from certain wifely duties…gave her a chance to have a girlhood” (28).
They consider her a burden, but have found a use for her, marry her off to the Mr Hathaway so they could keep him as a business partner.

Yet Edna is not the typical woman, as she believes in expressing herself and living freely without society’s rules and oppression holding her down. Throughout the beginning of the novel it is shown that Edna is not the typical creole woman. For example: “Mr. Pontellier returned to his wife with the information that Raoul had a high fever and need looking after”. “If it was not a mother’s place to look after children, then whose on earth was it?”(1) Edna being improper by not being attentive to her husband or not the mother figure proves that she is not a typical creole mother and wife.
Plot, Cast, Screenplay, Flaws, Structure and Acting are the areas where I’ll be reviewing this movie. Two sisters, one a young beauty who chooses passion over logic, the other a law student who’s fixed moral keeps her from following her desires, are taken from their luxurious home when their father suddenly passes away. Out of money and out of options, the women move into their Great Aunt Aurelia's house in East LA, where they find themselves thrown into a world that, despite their heritage, seems completely foreign. Over time, they discover the beauty of the culture they once fought so desperately to hide. And in the process they find the one thing that had eluded them: love.

However during the reunion Gatsby is still blinded by his dream. Even though Daisy isn’t the same as he remembers.
The Theme of Conformity In The Great Gatsby by, F. Scott Fitzgerald, conformity is brought on by Daisy. In those days, men were still seen as superior to women. She mentioned that she felt it was better to be a beautiful fool and get the man with all the wealth, then to be intelligent. She pretends to be a picture perfect wife even when she is completely unhappy with her life and ends up forgetting whom she really was before, therefore conforming to society. We could see that she has attributes that go beyond what everyone else sees.
