burn. I pine. I perish, Tranio / if I achieve not this young modest girl” (1.1.153-154).

Example Citations
• In Shakespeare’s Taming of the Shrew, Katherina’s consistent ridicule does little to deter Petruchio; she yells, “Asses are made to bear and so are you” (2.1.200). Petruchio’s rebuttal, “Women are made to bear and so are you,” only serves to make him seem more in control, more powerful, and more shrewish (2.1.201). Petruchio is an example of a man who needs women to be untamed. While some men may find complete submissiveness attractive, men like Petruchio – with his desire to dominate, tame, and control anyone below him – will not be interested in women who are tamed.
