Let us start with what is free will? Well free will is acting independently in spite of outside influences. In Macbeth by William Shakespeare there were many tragedies Including the death of Macbeth. But now it is time to talk about the free will and the differences women and men had against it.

Lady Macbeth and Macbeth had a couple things in common starting with manipulation. Macbeth was the one who was manipulated, “ Macbeth shalt be king hereafter” (Mac.1.3.50).

Lady Macbeth had more of the free will then Macbeth because she died at her own risk and everything thing she did was at her own risk. But when it came to Macbeth everything was planned or someone planned it for him. As you can see women have more free will then men. Women can hold everything down when it gets crazy but when it comes to men they go with the crazy. Thar is the act of free
