Goneril insulted her husband’s reluctance to direct his military forces and gain more power for himself by saying that he has “milky gentleness” (1.4.364), and that she should “give the distaff/into [her] husband’s hands” (4.2.20-21).It is also apparent that Lear is becoming more feminine as he loses authority over his daughters.This emphasizes that the women are placed in a subordinate position in society compared to men, may also be due to the men’s fear of rejection.Her using female gender roles as an insult also reveals how female gendered attributes carry a negative connotation, and are deemed insignificant by the society of the time.However, when Cordelia dies, the last bit of femininity and maternity is obliterated in the play.
