Justness In Trifles

In general, time frames often distinguish the attitudes between men and women, resulting in a lack of ethical paradigms of justice. Women quite often lived under their husband's rule, constantly being hindered. In many cases, females were not considered significant in societal matters. Furthermore, there was a lack of caring towards them, and women were more so looked upon as jaded and less consequential. A masculinist might ponder the thoughts that females deserve neglectful behaviour, lacking the comprehension of equality. Moreover, it is heavily concluded that before the Women's Right Movement came into effect, women felt restrained in their marriages, having to obey their husband's demands; this often led to frustrations.

The women examine the details - the trifles - of the suspect's life to discover a deeper meaning and in the end solve a mystery by exposing a tragedy."

The constraints that men have placed upon women in previous times displayed the men's lack of
