Subject: Final Paper Proposal

I wish to discuss, for my final paper, the ways in which women play into their designated roles, in order to get what they desire. I will do this by focusing on the play MButterfly by David Henry Hwang and my first scene. In both we see women utilizing the roles given to them by their society to get what they want. The mother in my scene does that by playing on her role as a mother. She tries to show her daughter that they can still be a family by showing her how they were one in the past. Song utilizes her/his role as a woman (in drag) by showing herself as feminine, meek, and submissive; in order to get military secrets from Gallimard.
