This male chauvinist society behavior practically obliged the women to adapt to it, sometimes having to leave their ¨essence¨ in aside, and start to act in a more<em> ¨manly way¨</em>, without mentioning that normally the duties designed to women were considered not important or influent (housewife´s as an example).
Rilke´s was against this situation and highlighted the women's capacity to perform any task effectively, without having to copy or perform it the same way of a male, sustained their capacity to proceed properly before any situation, and basically saw the women as something unique, useful, necessary.
