gender roles
Rich addresses women in order to raise awareness on female identity and
gender roles. The title makes reference to the role women play or played in
society by suggesting that the role of the daughter in law only exists by
marrying a man, that is, through heterosexual marriage. She also uses
metaphors and allusions to depict how the "thinking woman" goes through a
physical process of deformation since society hinders her from defining her
own identity and freeing her boundaries. The she in the poem is confined to
the house, she does not have a language of her own and so she prefers to
act rather than to use a male language whose "words are not her own".

So powerful
This poem is one of the most powerful feminist one. Rich interrogates the
superiority of male in the so called patriarchal society. The poem
addresses daughterin-laws as modern women whereas mother-in-laws are
depicted as traditional women. Though daughters are grown up another way,
yet they both mother and daughter have some shared bitter experiences.

Spell Check!
Good lord, I had intended on adding a little intelligent input but looking
at the disasterous attempts at spelling by previous "intellectuals" I think
I'll pass!

This is a pungent feminist poem where rich explorers the multiple dimention
of woman's life, inflicted with sorrow and male exploitation. Title itself
hints at the disoderly photographs of a woman, daughter in law, the
relation dominently linked with son. Rich has deliberately selected
daughter in law not sister or daughter in order to disclose the position of
a woman who has hardely lived as a independent daughter but dependent
daughter in law.

The poem by Aderienne Rich give glimpses of various situations of a married
woman. Most of the situations of the poem match globally with the
situations of daughters in law. Aderinne has universalized this part.

This poem is so strong and true of a young woman trying to get through life
with some struggle in their path. I maybe a 15 year old teenager but
I'm not naeve what others say I am.
Adrienne Rich has a way with words when its about the truth and life of a
young woman
