The women of the novel "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett deal with a variety of problems related to sexism, but their experiences differ due to race, class, and age. Through the character of Skeeter, The Help also exposes the double standards white women faced in the South during the 1960s. Skeeter chafes against the sexist Southern culture that expects white women to marry, stay home, and have children as soon as possible, while white men are allowed the freedom to explore their passions in the workforce. Choose two characters from the novel and compare the types of sexism that they struggle with, and how does this compare with your real-life experiences? Although we are living in 2021, how much has changed? Can you think of examples from today’s society where this idea is still prevalent?
