In most Kate Chopin’s short stories, in the 1890s, she
focuses on the lives of sensitive, intelligent women. The two short stories,
“The Story of an Hour” and “Desiree’s Baby,” portray a genuinely situation in
which men are a mainstay of families; females are under men’s control, their
fates are decided. Marriage is assumed as a grave not an expected lovely life.
The perspectives of Mrs. Mallard and Mrs. Valmonde claim
that females stay at a low position. These two different short stories
but reveal a same theme—freedom is a luxury for women.
I think you need to clarify what women you are comparing--best to use Desiree and Mrs Mallard and to specify exactly how they are both similar and DIFFERENT
