reruns of 1950s television sit-coms” (Cootz 1992) . Leave it to Beaver and The Andy Griffith Show were the pinnacle of television sit-coms of the time. They both had the stereotypical all American family with hardworking fathers; stay at home mothers [aunt] and children who are responsible and well mannered.

Even though the Cleavers and Taylors were understood to be the norm, many American families during the fifties and sixties could not live up to those ideal families they saw on their television.

the people around him, and about the world. Many characters’ appearances in the book do not reflect who they really are; some characters simply seem unreal; some characters mask their true identity, including Jason Taylor himself, who is constantly trying to reveal only aspects of himself and in search for the right appearance throughout the novel. Many of these characters’ real personas are eventually revealed, because-- in reality--one is not capable of choosing what identity to put on and has…

This shows how sexism is more of a common item in society today rather than something unusual. In the book men were the ones who were sextist towards the women. The main character Taylor, who is very self-reliant person and doesn't need a man to help her, ends up falling into the same ideologies as other women do who…
