Gender stereotypes. The typical "female" is often portrayed as shopping addicted, always on her phone, and someone who hates physical exercise of any kind. Sometimes it may be hard to step out of the stereotypes and be oneself due to the fear that someone may criticize them for playing sports, which sadly many people think is a "guy thing".

Peer pressure from other females can contribute to this as well. If a girl even expresses her interest for a particular sport, others may call it "lame" or "for the guys".

It's kind of sad in a way, thinking we have come such a long way yet women are unable to pursue their dreams without persecution or hate.

Shakespeare has used the word fawn rather than a synonym such as a flatter to describe his actions because fawn is more negative, suggesting manipulation of another for personal gain.

<h3>What is the use of synonym words? </h3>

The word fawn implies a young deer that represent immaturity. It means it could be used to express the pessimistic manipulative behavior of a person.

However, flatter is giving a positive perspective that arises from a praising scenario.

Thus, it fawn word is more appropriate to show how Cassius is <u>influencing</u> Brutus for his personal gain.
