In the movie from what we watched today we see Betty get married to the perfect man. She finally got her ideal life and conformed to society doing what every women is supposed to do, get married and became the perfect wife. Of course it wasn’t her perfect world she and her husband didn’t seem to have that emotional connection it was like they were married because they had to be. In the dinner scene we see that they are very distant and Betty doesn’t seem happy at all. She feels like this is what is supposed to happen for woman and nothing else it is how society works. When her friend told her she applied to go to law school, Betty was outraged and thought of it to be terrible but actually Betty’s way of life doesn’t seem like she is all that happy with it.

Vivian-
I thought your blog was very good. I agree with what you said about Betty and her wanting to be a housewife because that is what society is telling her she wants. I liked the example of the dinner Betty had with her friends and her husband. It emphasized the point you were trying to get across.
Keep up the good work !
