Abstract: | The concept of sex, gender and sexuality has changed in our society. Sex is biologically constructed where as gender is the perception of society. As a result, there is sexual liberation. There is no compulsion to abide by the heterosexual norms within the partners. People can enjoy their life with their own sexual identity. They may live their life as homosexual or bisexual as per their wish. It is proved by the role of Betty who at first plays the role of the unsatisfied wife of Clive a Victorian patriarch. Later she discloses the truth that she is a lesbian. She is livin g with Clive only for the sake of society. Similarly, another character, Edward, shows his attitude according to the decoded discourse of the society. Later, he, also, turns into homosexual. The fact of uncontrolled sexual desire of human beings is traced in Victoria and Ellen’s role since they jumped out of the norm of society and declared themselves as lesbians. |
