s their own responsibilities that they                   must take care of. Austens tasks were to be obedient to her family and at                   the same time to be a writer. One similarity that Austen and Elinor had was,                   the two of them had a great difficulty with men. Austen was never married                   and wrote romantic novels. She created the character Elinor to display the                   side of her that fear for men. Where there were parties held, Austen would                   be fond of dancing but never could really speak to a man because she was                   too shy. (Austen 308) Even though Austen was very smart, she never really                   got the chance to speak to guys because of her family ties, but using Elinor in                   her novel to display her feelings toward men, she could achieve her dreams                   through her writings.

People in her society were very strict and were                   lawful. This was a big influence for Jane Austen because she was able to see                   what was going on in her society. (Harding 48) She did not live on the easy                   streets of life; she lived her life like a slave. Women were not paid much                   working on farms because of the fact that they were females. Growing up in a                   harsh society was during the early 1800s, when there were no roads and                   people got hung for stealing.
