The character who I have chosen from the fiction who is limited in his or her role in

society is Desiree. Based on the article provided, this character is limited on her roles. Chopin

(1893) states that “What Désirée said was true. Marriage, and later the birth of his son had

softened Armand Aubigny’s imperious and exacting nature greatly.” This means that marriage

which was influenced by the society shaped ones perspective. Based on the story, Désirée is an

adopted child of Monsieur and Madame Valmondé who were childless. They considered the

child as a gift from God. After some time she is married to Armand Aubigny which makes her to

become happy. The two are blessed with a kid who bring delight to both couples. Desiree is one

of the characters in Kate Chopin's play whose function in society was shaped and limited by her

unique racial background. Though it was not indicated by her physical appearance or the color of

her complexion, it was claimed that her kid inherited the physicochemical properties of being

dark skinned.

From the story, Désirée says, “And my skin is fair,” seizing his wrist. “Look at my hand;

whiter than yours, Armand,” she laughed hysterically (Chopin, 1893).” This bigotry has wreaked

havoc on her relationship as well as her personality. When she came to terms with the terrible

reality, she was met by her own husband's hasty judgment and wrath towards a race that her

husband is well aware of and strongly opposes, but that she was unaware of. She was forced to

terminate her own life and that of his baby out of desperation and social judgment, so that they

might both be free of agony and ridicule from the individuals she believed would embrace,

defend, and support by them.

A notation piece by Maia Kobabe speaks about gender equality. Maia is also another

character who is limited in her role in society. From the non-fiction piece, Kobabe (2019) states,
