I think, (i'm not 100% sure) but i think it's because back then women couldn't be actors. The men played women's parts.

During Shakespeare's time women were not allowed to be actors. Since Shakespeare's sister was female, she would not have been trained in acting.

Shakespeare's plays do not have many female roles for exactly this reason. In Romeo and Juliet, the only women are Juliet, Lady Capulet, Lady Montague, and the Nurse. On the other hand, the audience is introduced to many of Romeo's male friends, servants, and kinsmen. Often young men were chosen to play the roles of young females like Juliet because their voices hadn't matured and were more feminine sounding. Older women like Juliet's nurse were played by men, but their roles were often comedic and a male in the role added to the comedic element.

Analyze how the free-verse structure in the poem “Tattoo” by Gregg Shapiro reveals Shapiro’s message.
vfiekz [6]
The free-verse structure is in line with the poem's message about the suffering of a human being that was deprived of freedom. It is as if the poet desperately (and in vain) tries to break all the cruel constraints that his father had suffered in the concentration camp. The verse is free, but the structure is still stanzaic - it is impossible to recover from the trauma, however hard one might try.

The free verse also brings a conversational tone to the poem, breaking it free of all artificial techniques, and giving the content primacy over the form (up to a point). The message is just too important.

what can you infer about the relationship between Mr.hale and his wife , martha hale? (a jury of her peers)
diamong [38]

Answer: You can infer that Mr. Hale and his wife don't understand each other's perspectives of life. Mr. Hale, being a sexist and underestimating women, and her wife, being oppressed by the "social rules" and working overtime.

Explanation: In jury of he peers, the relationship between Mr. Hale and his wife Martha Hale is not addressed directly, but implied by other characters. Mr. Hale's comments about women's ineffectiveness make it clear that he underestimates her and leaves her all the work, and Mrs. Hale's disbelief about his husband's competence to retell the events, imply that she doesn't trust him.
