The issue of social pressure of women’s actions was widely supported by the numerous commands by the narrator of the short story. Just a few simple commands like “This is how you iron your father’s khaki pants so that they don’t have a crease,” “Don’t squat down to play marbles—you are not a boy,” and “this is how to behave in the presence of men who do not know you very well” show exactly the belief of the narrator. The narrator along with many others in this society believe there are certain ways that a woman should and should not act. That claim is proven in so many more ways than just the narrator’s commands. My personal experience with this important topic also does more to support my claim. I believe it is very comical the social pressures of how a woman should perform are greatly more than how a man should
