The similarities I see between "Trifles" and "Aunt Jennifer's Tigers" both show the suppression of women in a patriarchal society. They both are of a woman suppressed by their husband, and find life miserable. Both women have struggled because of their gender. They are similar in those ways, but there is one big difference. The difference is in the end resolution of how they each handled the situation. Aunt Jennifer will live and die in this type of patriarchal system, but Mrs. Wright killed her husband to escape his controlling ways.
