Gender and Pathology in 'The Yellow Wallpaper

Symbolism is what Fleenor talks in The Yellow Wallpaper. Their prison was their home and also their tomb. Men worked together, while women worked ALONE stuck in the four walls. Women denied the opportunity to work, and that they were prisoners in the room. The narrator in The Yellow Wallpaper is punish by not seeing her baby and being lock in the room. It symbolizes that women did not have many rights, were not able to write and speak up. I agree that women were not as equal as men. Women were afeected physically but also mentally because being lock in a room with nothing to do, a women back in those times can think of the people she loved. also of being back with the poeple she needs. Women did not wanted to be prisioners for life and speak up for their rights as men.
