Mrs. Warren's Profession is just one of three plays that appear in George Bernard Shaw's collection aptly titled "Plays Unpleasant," each of which, according to Shaw, "forces the viewer to confront unpleasant facts. Shaw had an idea: to highlight and challenge the role of women in society. Ms. Warren's profession takes a critical look at the male double standard within society and how women are objectified. Victorian society created a ridged framework where the roles of women and men were clearly defined. The microcosm that exists in the play reveals without exaggeration the true extent of male domination within a society, which was on the verge of change. The male elite attempted to suppress these changes and one which directly conflicted with the play was the Lord Chamberlain's decision to ban the play due to its frank discussion and depiction of prostitution . Shaw carefully designed each character in the play, so that each offered a representation of the changes he deemed relevant. Shaw claimed that no respectable women who could earn a decent wage would become whores and that no women would marry for money if they could marry. for love. Ms. Warren embodies precisely this idea: why shouldn't I have done it? The house in Brussels was truly high class; a much better place for a woman than the factory where Anne Jane was poisoned. None of our daughters have ever been treated like I was in the back kitchen of that temperance place, at the Waterloo bar or at home. Would you have wanted me to stay in these films and become a worn-out old chore before I was forty? Shaw manages, in the play, to recognize the importance of the female role model. The four male characters in the play seem just satellite around the middle of paper......evil derogatory act, but Croft realized the money-making potential and through Kitty Warren's experience and his own sense business, he increased his fortune. The Reverend Samuel Gardner has very little respect for his son, whose mother is said to be Kitty Warren. The Reverend is ashamed of his past and even attempts to destroy it, by acquiring a series of letters he wrote to Kitty. Shaw's attempt to realign the social dichotomy seems to be a close depiction of the monster of Marry Shelley, his new wife, in fact. not the one who relies on her own independence and uses feminine qualities to assert herself as an equal, but the one who imitates the qualities of the man against whom she rises. Shaw however managed to point out that prostitution is by no means a preferred option for women and that it is only through circumstance and survival that this option is even considered..
