Othello, Act 4, Scene 3, Page 5 quote by emelia
Yes, a dozen of them—as many as there are
women in the world, in fact. But I do think it’s the
husband’s fault if we wives cheat on them. For
instance, our husbands may stop sleeping with us, and give it out to other
women instead. Or they may get insanely jealous,
and keep us from going anywhere. Or let’s say
they hit us, or cut back on the money they give us
out of spite. We have feelings. We may be able to
forgive them, but we want to get back at them
too. Husbands need to know that their wives are
human beings too. They see, smell, and taste
sweet and sour just like their husbands. Why do
they replace us with other women? Do they do it
for fun? I think they do. Is it out of lust? I think so.
Is it a weakness? It is. And don’t we have
passions, and a taste for fun, and weaknesses,
just like men? Then tell them to treat us well. Or
let them figure out that the bad things we do are
just what we learned from them.
