The title “A Jury of Her Peers” is appropriate because it highlighted the treatment of women at the time. The rights of women were lacking in society and government. The few rights of women were overshadowed by the standards of social concept. Their lives were centered on the wants of their husbands and families. The only thing more domineering to women than their husbands was society’s standards of women. An example in "A Jury of Her Peers" is the character Mrs. Hale. In private her husband treats her as an equal which is the extent of her equality. It would have been unthinkable for a women in that time to interrupt their husband but she did indicating their stand on the same footing.
