daughters were expected to follow their fathers decisions.

they had no voice.

the father was incharge of his daughter, making all her decisions for her, until she was married off,. then the husband to the role of the father adn was the head of the marriage

desdemona refers to this belief when she tells her father she is married to Othello

women were expected to follow and obey what ever the men decided. desdemona challenges this view. as she :

1) disobeys her father by marrying with out consent

2) marrys a black man - seen as unsuitable.

hope that helps you understand.
