mario62 [17]

D. Both share a negative view of gender interactions.

This new realization forever changes the way he sees her. In "The Dean's Provocation", a doctor goes to visit a prostitute that he has been admiring. However, while doing business with her, he is impotent. He blames the woman on his inability and she blames him. Both of these poem have a negative view of gender interactions.

These poems are also both written with rhyming couplets and they are both satires.
