    held to higher expectations in regards to their duties around the house‚ as a mother as well and as a wife‚ the value of a wife is unequal to that of a husband; no matter how many of their duties outweigh those of their significant other. Or so author Judy Brady believes. Brady addresses marital inequality in her 1970’s article “I want a wife” by approaching the subject from the perspective of a 1970’s bachelor.

    Introduction section of Curley’s wife She is newly married to Curley. Curley’s has no name on this novel because she wants recognition‚ attention‚ her own identity‚ and her own life. To emphasise how she has none of these things‚ Steinbeck doesn’t even give her a name. She is just someone’s “wife”. This shows that there is no identity of her own. Without him she would be nothing.

    Though both circumnavigate the concept of love‚ the effect left within both writers based on personal affairs dramatically differentiates the personas of both speakers.

In the second and third lines‚ the speaker recalls the lips and arms‚ of the young men‚ that have embraced her in the past‚ rather than their
