Abstract

The objective of this paper is to analyze women stereotypes and Blanche Dubois in Tennessee William’s play, A Streetcar Name Desire. Data for this study were collected through the writer by close reading on the text of play. Data cards were used to record materials relevant to the data analyses. A library research was conducted to support the data collection. The data analyses produce five women stereotypes, (1) “Invalid” woman can be trusted (the society tends to give different treatments to man and woman concerning human defeats) (2) Women tends to interfere other women’s marriages (in the play pictured through Blanche’s coming into Stella and Stanley’s marriage life) (3) A man is naturally promiscuous and therefore must be forgiven, whereas a woman who “falls” destroys herself (4) When rape occurs, it is the woman that is blamed not the man, as represented by the rape incident in the play, and (5) Even when such female characters are presented sympathetically as the victims of an unfeeling social world, once their sexual innocence is lost their path leads inevitably to death as what has happened to Blanche in the play.
