Explanation:

In"Trifles" by Susan Glaspell, The theme of social oppression of women shows how the male dominated society treats women. The men belittles the women, they occupy the workplace while the women only stay at home. Trifles portrays how men dominate the world and look down on the female gender. Social restrictions and expectations confine women to their homes only to do house works. The women go unheard in male-dominated societies with little control or identity of their own.

The women are oppressed. They are only identified by their husbands surnames just like the characters of Mrs. Hale and Mrs. Peters. except Minnie the only woman in the play to get a first name. but she is isolated at home and without children.

The theme of social oppression of women displayed in the play shows that women are not only locked in their homes and left to be dependent on their husbands but that the men fails to acknowledge their roles in oppressing the women rather they mock their character and intelligence and blame the women for enjoying the only things their oppression offers them.
