    I believe the way Huxley portrays and treats the female population reflects the inequalities in gender and misogyny in the early 20th century society which the novel was written in. I have read and analysed articles on this matter and have found them to all generally agree with my hypothesis. One thing I have found interesting is that I have found no articles written before the 1990’s on the gender issue in Brave New World.
