Write an Article on Dorothy Parker, The Waltz.

I will pay for the following article Dorothy Parker, The Waltz. The work is to be 4 pages with three to five sources, with in-text citations and a reference page. She reveals the reality of the treatment of women by men and shows how they were trapped in a male-dominated society during the twentieth century. It is an autobiographical account of her experience which involved sexism and how she conforms to the expectations of the society. The opening lines express the relationship between man and woman which is that of hatred yet there is a sense of dependence both inherent and induced through social pressure. In response to a simple question “would you like to dance?” a woman is often heard to reply in the affirmative. However the opening lines tell the reader that the female character is unwilling to do so. In fact her sentiments are so strong that it appears that she is completely frustrated with the cliched gestures that women show towards men as a weaker sex: “I don’t want to dance with him. I don’t want to dance with anybody. And even if I did, it wouldn’t be with him. He’d be well among the last ten. I’ve seen the way he dances. Just think, not a quarter of an hour ago, here I was sitting, feeling so sorry the poor girl he was dancing with. and now I’m going to be that poor girl.” (Parker 1942) As one reads on through the story he realizes that it is rather a satirical parody of women’s attitude towards men.
