"The Yellow Wallpaper" does comment on female gender roles in late-nineteenth-century America, but it leaves many readers with feelings of uncertainty and confusion. Is Jane, the story's narrator, free in the end, or is she more trapped than she was before she was forced into the rest cure in the ancestral home? Was it not "hysteria" that had gotten her there to begin with? It is true that the narrator's hysterical episodes are what landed her in the ancestral home, but the original cause of that hysteria was not understood by those around her. Because Jane's disease is a matter for specialized physicians, Jane has no voice when it comes to her condition and treatment. In this thesis, I will argue that Jane does manage to free herself from her husband and his expectations through madness, though it might not have been readers' preferred outcome. I will also argue that Gilman did not wish for women to suffer the effects of madness to escape patriarchal culture, though it is the ending she chooses for "The Yellow Wallpaper." Gilman's nonfiction, which was mostly written after Gilman published "The Yellow Wallpaper," explores Gilman's broader social solution to Victorian women's dependency. Because "The Yellow Wallpaper" is a short story, Gilman cannot fully elaborate on these social solutions, but she can bring to light society's insufficient belief system, especially when looking at Victorian gender roles. Gilman, through Jane's character, is able to give "voice to the dark nightmare" (Savoy 159) that is a middle-class Victorian woman's life.
