The Yellow Wallpaper has intrigued me; with the way the marriage between the main character, and her husband was portrayed. The husband in the story was portrayed as controlling and stubborn, because he never took the time to try and listen to his wife when she had complaints about certain things. One pattern I noticed while reading The Yellow Wallpaper is how the husband is always neglecting the wife by prolonging her thoughts and ideas by telling her save it for tomorrow or by telling her to go to her room. The husband also infantilizes her by calling her little girl or little goose instead of calling her a woman. While the husband is very controlling and some what abusive the wife is very patient and she tries to understand that he does for her is for her own good but to my eyes it looks like he doesn’t want to deal with her so he neglects her. This marriage is truly messed up because of lack of communication and understanding, the husband chooses not to communicate with the wife and he refuses to understand her so he forces her to go to her room.
