1) I think Jocelyn’s concerns about reporting her rape were completely justified. Unfortunately‚ the possibility of authorities not believing her was quite high‚ especially considering the time that passed between the assault and when she was encouraged to report it and lack of witness and evidence. The scrutiny that rape victims are under during investigation and/or trial is also quite a big factor discouraging them from reporting to authorities. I think the therapist did the right thing in not

Susan Glaspell’s short story “A Jury of Her Peers” is more effective than her play Trifles at depicting the marginalization of women. Given only the text of the stories‚ and not taking into consideration the acting in the play‚ “Jury” far surpasses Trifles in conveying how women were basically disregarded as having any insight into “manly” matters such as a murder investigation.
