The writer argues that Glaspell's main point is that the women constitute a jury of "peers" and have the background to judge the woman's conduct accurately while the men in the play do not.

The Changing Role Of Housework And Child Care In The Women's Lives In Meg Luxton's "More Than A Labour Of Love"
[ send me this essay ]
8 pages in length. Gender inequity has long been a social ill inextricably linked with female oppression, with the homefront the primary location where this predisposition is most apparent. According to Meg Luxton, author of "More Than A Labour of Love: Three Generations of Women's Work in the Home," the free labor women have been providing for centuries is the basis upon which society revolves and, thereby, perpetuates itself. If women did not stay home and tend to the children and housework, the men would not be able to seek work outside the home; as such, women's contribution to a successful society is both critical and wholly ignored.
