The novel Odd Women focuses on three characters: Miss Rhoda Nunn, Miss Barfoot, and Everad Barfoot. Mr. Widdowson and Mr. Mickelthwaite clearly outline conservative processes. Gissin, in the novel The Odd Women tends to question by conditions of women and his arguments are concurrent with modernity Grand, 2013). Gissing majorly concentrates on the right of women to have adequate and appropriate education in the society. The rationale behind this is that women are also as intelligent as men and can also learn just like their male counterparts. This is an inquiry existing among the conservatives as Gissing examines the way his society tends to treat the women (Grand, 247).

It is common knowledge that Gissin perceived feminism in a broad scope by depicting the instances in which are referred to the situations of women and the time depending on their country. He suggests that feminist arguments tend to reflect on various sides of militancy.  Gising, however, uses three of his characters to increase to communicate (Grand, 202). By this, Rhoda is perceived to be the most radical in the early 1970s children in the battlefield showing how a woman also needs a man’s vision and the same extent a man needs a woman brother is perceived to have a concept of man and marriage in general.

In the novel, Rhoda stands strong against marriage.  She suggests that women should operate like monks because loving and having feelings including sex are the weakness of women.  Despite these, Rhoda does not explain the consequences of the nature of human species if there is nobody who gets married and has children. In the novel, this is the only part that Gissing went wrong as he did not predict the pill and contraception.  It was through diverse thoughts that he learned of contraception which would safeguard women from unwanted pregnancies

Emerald buffet projects out the perspectives of a man. The main reason behind this is not Everett buffet standard support feminism by the idea that he viewed education as a result of intelligence (Sanders 265).  Emerald buffet identifies this on the current chart of marriage and relationships between various management to determine the average capacity of individuals Emerald buffet conclude ok today brings out the attributes of a woman by analyzing the trends carefully.

Individually, I have never understood the reason why civil societies concentrated on maintaining women at home critically. Gissing questions the fact that women are not the same. He suggests that almost everything results from education (Grand, 247). This leads to a question on whether men and women have equal rights as human beings related to the basis of their gender. It is however evident that women appear to be weak due to simple restrictions laid upon them.

Gissing contemplates on the fact that women do not have the potential to swim. Additionally, the fact that women could not be able to swim was not because of nature rather than their clothes (Grand 249).  This is even attributed to the title of the novel by Gissing which is substantially reflective of fashion.  According to Gissing, women were not supposed to stay idle at home and take care of the children. He suggests that the rationale behind women staying at home is because they don’t have any other choice to do with their lives.

Additionally, Gissing outlines the fact that womanly does not reflect into anything when it comes to profession. He also points out that womanish and womanly are two distinct words.

This is because women do not have to account for anything that they perceive as right for them. There is the essence of everybody having a choice to consider when deciding the kind of life one would want to live when it comes to women profession, it reflects into an occupation disdained by a man However the man does not analyze his words critically. Gissing is sure that women are there most prevalent enemies’ two men.  Here’s Virginia Madden after her first conversation with Rhoda: She is quite like a man in energy and resources. I never imagined that one of our sex could resolve and plan and act as she does!’ Grand, 258). The first idea is to ensure that women are encouraged to do more and that they have equal chances to live just like any other person in society.

Gissing perceives that education will ensure many women secure jobs and attain financial independence.  The economic status gained by the women will enable them to progress into adults instead of being viewed as children who depend on their father and later on get married depending on their husband

The Odd Women is basically to the quest for women to attain freedom by considering that marriages are supposed to be structured on the aspect of free will. This is connected to the analysis and review of various characters in the novel (Chase, 226). The masterpiece is useful in exploring facets of human experience, intimate associations, politics, morality, social constructions, psychology, and cultural affiliations. Primarily, The Odd Women by George Gissing is structured on the quest to establish an aspect of feminism (Grylls, 219).

In conclusion, The Odd Women projects out to an intelligent piece of work and proves to be interesting to read. The ideologies brought about by Gissin have come to pass in the 19^th century systematically. This is due to the reason that women have now accessed education and are increasingly being seen in the corporate world. Moreover, marriage is currently not a must to the women, and financial status tends to bring out the difference. Women are the central point in the novel since they described their disappointments and quest to attain a better future even if it takes time. Gutenberg is also a supportive text that outlines the way the British novels are designed about the human association and portraying the challenges that women encounter in society (Grand, 257). The novel describes how Rhoda, Virginia and other characters have a quest to attain a better life in future after disappointments of life about marriage breakups which challenge them to think of a better way to better their skills of income generation thus establishing their future.
