Women were created from the rib of a man according to the Bible. When certain men hear this they think of a woman as lesser individuals. Men sometimes think women are just here to please them and keep the house clean. In the short story “Happy Endings” John and Mary are in love and have children. In the end, they live happily ever, but there are a few plot twists for the readers if they don’t want the story to have a happy ending. Women are just as equally as men and both genders are exactly same but with different minds.
John is viewed as a womanizer and he only views Mary as an object. “He merely uses her body for selfish pleasure and ego gratification of a tepid kind (Atwood 364).” John is a selfish person that doesn’t care how Mary feels.
