This is indicative of the fact that the narrator is speaking to the judge in the past tense about her mother, as she began the poem with “Your Honor, when my mother stood / before you…” (1, 2).

This permanently affects the way that each gender interprets how expressing emotion is socially acceptable. Reiner uses examples of real life situations and proof from research to educate the audience of the root of this problem.…
