Answer 1

Answer:

One of the themes addressed in the story is the objectification of women.

Explanation:

Within history, women live in the midst of an extremely patriarchal society that constantly tries to objectify and disparage them. However, these women resist these behaviors towards them as best they can, because even in resistance they are in a position of fragility in relation to society. However, they adapt and do the best they can, even if it seems they don't.

Often, the resistance of these women is related to sexual freedom and the ability to attract the attention of men, who treat them as objects and consider them only by physical and superficial traits, not valuing who they really are and the profound capacity they have.
