Socioeconomic status (SES) is often interpreted as the social class of an individual or group. It is often measured and determined as a combination of education, income and occupation. These three categories often determine a person's social position relative to others. Globally, inequality in wealth and other areas of life is on the rise. Research over the years has indicated that individuals who identify as members of the LGBT community are extremely vulnerable and at a socioeconomic disadvantage. From the citizen's perspective, control, privilege and authority highlight socioeconomic aspects. Molly's journey to discover her gender and sexuality represents for her a direct opposition to the alteration of her socioeconomic status. The oppositions that hinder her are her challenge to heteronormative roles, social discrimination and discrimination in the workplace. Heteronormativity holds that heterosexuality is the norm in terms of romantic relationships and sexual orientation. It has been considered a cultural prejudice because society favors and has always favored same-sex relationships while opposing same-sex relationships. The fact that same-sex relationships are seen as normal and same-sex relationships are seen as taboo, homosexual and transgender relationships are subject to a lot of discrimination thanks to this heteronormative prejudice. The challenge to this norm is the main objective of this novel. Rita Mae Brown uses Molly to indicate various social oppositions during the time period. On the one hand, it depicts the affliction of a lesbian coming of age in a wild heteronormative society. On the other hand, there is a perceptible idea that lesbians should not be treated differently from men in terms of sexual gratification. Lesbians......middle of paper......still get financial equality. There may not be a dowry involved, but during this period marriage is as much an economic transaction for women as it was for men in Shakespeare's time. Marriage offers Molly a substantial opportunity to elevate her socioeconomic status. Molly's rejection of this social norm consequently ensures that marriage will never be a means to elevate her position in society. Another essential issue that the incident with Cheryl uncovers is that Molly must defy the expectations of not only men but also women. Einstein stated, “The world is a dangerous place to live in, not because of evil people, but because of people who do nothing about it.” that statement. It's a representation because it's the most depressing thing in society
