She wanted real love and actively pursued that desire, proving her autonomy to all. However, this “real love” was tainted in a way she was unable to see, it was in fact seduction, not love. The seduction twists Eliza’s drive for independence and uses it against her. She attempts to decide her own fate, and society punishes her for it. The seduction ruins her name and her life, leaving her alone and with child, then eventually dead.

In literature, certain characters are incorporated in order to influence the plot. In the play The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee Williams, Williams shows the audience specific aspects of characters in order to influence how they are perceived. The character of Laura Wingfield develops the plot and the audience’s perception of her transitions from a timid girl to a normal woman because of her interactions with Jim O’Connor. To begin, Laura and Jim’s kiss develops Laura’s transition from girl into woman. For example, Laura seems to be innocent since she is so romantically inexperienced by the age of 23.

During the setting and the publication of Pygmalion in 1912, sexism was slowly in decline; however, just the idea of sexism existing in the first place was what prompted Shaw to criticize all of society in his play Pygmalion. And it is quite clear that he was calling “attention to questions of femininity and gender” because of how “the title of Shaw’s play is taken from the myth of Pygmalion” (LitChart Sited). Similarly, in both the play and the myth, the protagonist is seen creating their own “perfect” ideas of what a woman is and how a woman should act (LitChart). In Shaw’s doing so of this, he is trying to show society how “unrealistic and even unnatural the expectations that society has for women are” (LitCharts).
