The gender had always played a big role and the male is always superior in these societies. Mark Twain tried to illustrate the gender stereotypes. Two humans are new existence, but they are not socially constructed because there are no rules pushed upon them, expect for not to eat form the devil tree. There is no one existed before them to tell them what they should do and how do they do it and if it is wrong or right to do it. Also, he reinforced that in his book by assigning different jobs for each one based on their gender. So, he assigned Eve the easy jobs, since she was stereotyped as a weaker gender. For Adam, he was assigned, his jobs were much harder. For instance, he had to build a shelter, while Eve was assigned to name the creatures. Nonetheless, Eve viewed Adam as a lazy person, and she mentioned that,” It looks to me like a creature that is more interested in resting than in anything else” (17). Twain demonstrates the men role in his era, but in a comic way, which makes it easier for everyone who did not experience that to understand the image that he drove about the society that he lived
