What is the main claim of your essay?
Chughtai deconstructs the idea that marriage, the society trains women to expect, is merely a marital union that identifies and restricts the personality of an individual by declaring marriage as ridiculous, devoid of feelings such as love, focused solely on the need to repress and manage female sexuality and glorify monogamy. Through the depiction of matriarchal space, in a broader and progressive sense, Chughtai gives a magnitude of female viewpoint and perceptions.
