Recently, I read a play called Trifles. Now, we all know that trifles are small deserts that are just simply for pleasure, however, in this play trifles played a big part. The play Trifles was about a murder case of Mr. Wright. Of course, the play was built around men, the men were the main characters in the play. The irony of the play was that the detectives wives, Mrs. Peters and Mrs. Hale, were the ones who solved the crime. While Mrs. Peters and Mrs. Hale were watching their husbands investigate, they noticed the little "trifles" that pointed towards Mrs. Wright killing her husband. Since, they loved Mrs. Wright, they hid all of the evidence so Mrs. Wright would not have gotten convicted. Some of the evidence included a dirty kitchen, her sewing kit dismantled, and her quilt she was sewing was not knitted right. In the play, Mrs. Wright was very clever, she hid all of the evidence in a place where men would not even care to look like her kitchen and sewing kit. This story stood out to me because in the beginning it made women look like simple "trifles". They were submissive to their husbands and were known to just do their wifely duties. However, because these women were so precise at their "womanly duties", they were able to solve the crime. The fact that Mrs. Peters and Mrs. Hale hid the evidence not only made them disobedient to the law, but it to me, made them feel superior over the men. Simply because  they knew something that the men didn't.
