Othello Is Responsible For Desdemona's Death

In the play “Othello” by William Shakespeare, the protagonist of the story is Othello, an African, Muslim general who is married to Desdemona. Desdemona is a fair, young, courteous woman who also happens to be white. At the end of the play, Desdemona is killed by her own husband, Othello. Some would say that she is responsible for her own death, the following pieces of evidence support this claim.
Desdemona is responsible for her own death because she provoked Othello to want to harm her by being inappropriate with another man,Cassio, who is not only Othello’s lieutenant but a man who is already wed to a lady of the night. The quotes “Be thou assured, good Cassio, I will do…” and “Do you know, sirrah, where Lieutenant Cassio lies?”(3.3.1-2)/(3.4.1). These two quotes prove that Desdemona was flirting with Cassio behind her husband’s back. In the first quote, she was alone with Cassio in her and Othello’s bedroom and in the second, she was asking where his bedroom room was? If someone is married, one should not ask where another who is not their spouse lays
Othello asks Iago, his revenge seeking ancient, “Was not that Cassio parted from my wife?”(3.3.36).Othello saw Cassio depart from Desdemona’s bedroom and inquired on whether he was a cuckold or not. Of course, Desdemona, distressed in the fact that she was caught, denied everything and claimed she was framed. The quotes above from the text prove that she cuckolded her husband and drove him to kill her.
Desdemona is responsible for her own death, because she was cuckolding her husband, who found out and killed her. If Desdemona was loyal to her husband and was not seeing another man when Othello’s back was turned, he would have never killed her. She provoked and disrespected her husband who would bend over backwards for her. Desdemona’s death was justified one hundred percent in the play “Othello” by William
