The Yellow Wallpaper describes a traditional 19th century marriage where the woman in the relationship often just did what her husband told her to do. They were‚ in a sense‚ trapped‚ ignored‚ and hid their marriage from society. In other words‚ the husband was ruled the relationship and the wife was very much so a follower.
