Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, Victorian Britain was, as many would say, unfair,cruel and harsh. It is a fact that women were discriminated in the sense that they did not have a voice or the power to act on problems in society. Victorian Britain and other countries too, were very patriarchal. This is particularly apparent during the life of Charlotte Bronte. On the 21st of April 1816 was the birth of Charlotte Bronte. In her early life, Charlotte dedicated her life to teach children and her family. She returned to Haworth where her sister's opened a school but failed to get students. Therefore, she and her sister's turned to writing. She and her sister's hid their true identities. Charlotte concealed her name under the pseudonym Currer Bell in a bid to sell her books. They believed that concealing their names under a male identity would get their books to sell. This is one of the major signs of a patriarchal society during the Victorian tim
