thy sting is not so sharp

Explanation:

Personification is a literary device used by writers especially in poems to give human attributes to their inanimate subjects. These are representative forms of abstract things in human forms, giving an active image, living entity or characteristic to something that is non- human.

The poem "Blow, Blow, Thou Winter Wind" uses this device in personification of the winter wind as something animate. This poem is from the romantic comedy "As you Like It" by William Shakespeare. The line "Thy sting is not so sharp" is one such example, for it gives the human characteristic or quality of 'biting' to the winter wind. Such type of giving humanistic qualities to things are termed as a form of personification.

explanation:

femininity is conveyed through bernice's personality. she doesn't act how the other girls act and everyone thinks she is weird. she learns how to act in a way that was considered femininely appropriate at the time. she becomes so popular but her attempts to be liked end up backfiring when she is pressured into bobbing her hair. the author wrote that bernice cut off her cousin's hair in revenge for tricking her to cut her hair. this was the authors way of trying to change the way feminine is defined and the way women are expected to act.
