Although the rest of the question is not included, we can still describe what this quote means in the novel. This quote comes from the book <em>The Pearl</em> by John Steinbeck.

In this quote, Kino is describing his wife Juana. Kino has always been obsessed with manhood, and what it means to be a man. Similarly, he wants his wife to be a typical woman. Juana is indeed patient, fragile and submissive. She obeys her husband and fulfills ideals of traditional womanhood. However, she is also very strong. She is resilient, practical and brave. This semi-contradiction shocks Kino, but also allows him to rely on her for support throughout their troubles.

Why are stereotypes a problem?
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Stereotypes can be a problem because when people don't follow the stereotypes, they can be bullied, called weird, or looked down upon. Also, when too many people follow a specific stereotype, it becomes the new normal.

Explanation:

For example, if you saw a boy wearing a dress, you would most likely stare, and think uhh....thats weird. Another example is actually somewhat racist. If you think of a basketball player, you would most likly think of a black one, leading to the stereotype that African Americans are better at specific sports. I hope this helped!

ASHA 777 [7]
Ebenezer Scrooge is the ​protagonist​ (main character) of ‘A Christmas Carol’. He is a banker or ‘moneylender’ of sorts who owned his own ‘counting house’ alongside his late business partner Jacob Marley.

In the opening of the novella, Scrooge is presented as a miserly ​and ​misanthropic ​(someone who dislikes other people) businessman with a strong aversion to Christmas and the society around him in general. :)
