In 250-300 words, identify how oppressive social expectations for the behavior of women impact the plot and themes of The True C
Hoochie [10]

Answer and Explanation:

"The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle" was published in 1990 and features a girl from the high who rebels and participates in a very dangerous adventure in a ship.

Charlote represents the social role that was expected of women of the time, she was repressed to be fragile, naive, well behaved and modest, however, she finds herself in the midst of dangerous plots involving episodes of violence, death and fights. Charlott, then, represents a release from the social oppression that women were subjected to, when she participates in all these moments, being an essential character for the resolution of these conflicts. In other words, we can show that Charlotte was only able to show herself and be comfortable with her own existence when she broke the social standard expected for her. This reveals that women would only discover their true potentials once they rebelled against the repression they suffered.
