    Argument: Tennessee Williams viewed women as inferior to men, therefore unable to function if they did not have a man in their lives.

    Claim: The role of women in Williams plays proves that his view of them is that they are unstable unless accompanied by a man.

    Evidence: "It is the men who control events; the women are entirely dependent on the men and use them to achieve their goals."
    "the strangers on whose kindness Blanche DuBois has "always depended" are exclusively male strangers"
    "…these women are all emotionally fragile"
