>I deplore her since she suffers nearly no hardships
my sides can only take so much

she suffers no hardships? she lives in a society that ignores her humanity. she was taught not to think, and she acts accordingly.

she lives a life defined by womanhood and motherhood, which plagues her. to men, she is her gender; to children, their mother; to her peers, a traitor. she is these things because she dares to be a person as well as a woman and a mother, and if she had not been a mother, she would have been other, worse things; that is to say, she had no way in which to be just a person and a woman, and to therefore be crisisless.

living life as a woman is an inherently limiting and frustrating experience, regardless of one's station and responsibilities. that is essentially the only underlying "point" of the entire novel. i wish you the best of luck in your pursuit to learn how to read, but until you've accomplished it, /lit/ is not the place for you
