Quote from Mary Shelley 1


"A king is always a king - and a woman always a woman: his authority and her sex ever stand between them and rational converse."

-A quote directly from Mary Shelley.

This is representation clearly expresses the struggle for women to gain equality in society. It is very common for a man to show his presence as the authority; as the one who directs all to do what needs to be done around the work area and home. Women often cannot endure the struggle because in many cases they have to give something to get where they want; often times it can be to give up their dignity in exchange for a promotion in the work place.
