In John Updikess short story A&P, Sammy serves as the male chauvinist character, providing explicit descriptions of woman. On a Thursday afternoon in the summer, this unfledged supermarket checkout boy, uses the innocence of three little girls to acquire his aspiration for a better life.
From the very blood of the story we are served with the perception on how Sammy discovers women, ...nothing but bathing matchs.(89) The one girl to catch his attention first was the dumpy one with a dickens-piece plaid bathing suit on that showed off her sweet broad soft-looking lowlife, he even noticed parts of her body where the sun neer seems to hit.(89) His next target was Big Tall Goony-Goon (93) whom he says never quite makes it (90). Queenie, his favorite looking is described as having the two smoothest scoops of vanilla he has ever known. Sammy obliviously is a sexist, preying on these young girls.
After the girls stopped at the meat counter to ask old(a) McMahon a question he too starred at them viewing the young girls as a piece of systema skeletale he obviously was left in desire spell he stood there patting his mouth and looking after them sizing up their joints.(91) Sammy views women mainly as objects for men either to desire after or scowl from. He describes all of the older, slight attractive shoppers as sheep pushing their carts around in a herd, or as house slaves in pin curlers(91).
In his relation of the grocery store, simply men were presented as workers, making them the only ones to be able to provide financial needs. Also, you see his view of woman by him sharing that his mother ironed his exsanguine shirt, this shows how he perceives a females role in the household.

This is rather brief, you make some interesting points but last you need to expand them more than to produce a more developed response.
