7. A Woman on a Roof

Story is fun and it has a point. It is about some workers working on a roof. The workes see a woman sunbathing and reading a book on top of one of the roofs. They whistle to get her attention but she just looks and continues to read the book. Men become angry because she didn't care about them. The setting is England in 60's and the problem about that is women had lower status then men. It is shown by men looking from top of the roof to woman. Rooftop is the symbol of a higher status. So woman on the roof being arrogant and not looking at workers is a strange thing to happen in that time. Thats why men were angry because in that time men were socially at an upper place then women. Also there is another social status fact. Woman is much more richer according to the workers and being rich is also a social status. So it contradicts with the men being more then a woman. I was a little confused there but generally I approve women being equal with men.
