Chopin states in her writing that after her husband dying she would have “A new sense of freedom”(525). Gilman also states in The Yellow Wallpaper that her husband “hardly lets her stir without special direction” (527). Each of these females are controlled by her husband and are stripped of their right to be there own person. They have no freedom, Even in The Jury of her peers, characters say that before being married Minnie would be out enjoying herself and she was seemed to enjoy her life, but once married she did not even have the freedom to make a phone call. Freedom seems to be a little different for each of the characters in the stories, In The Yellow wallpaper, Gilman states that she has no freedom what so ever and her husband locks her in a room behind bars all day, While Chopin just makes it obvious that after the passing of her husband she can now be free to do as she wishes, Chopin never states directly how her Husband strips her of her freedom. Glaspell shows Minnie had no freedom by the other characters pointing out things like her not being able to have a phone or how she was locked away in the house, Minnie herself never states that she has no freedom but each of the stories make it obvious that they did not have the right to live their own
