Stereotype

In stereotypes, a man is seen to take advantage of women frequently. This is seen in Gulliver's travels because just as Gulliver leaves for yet another journey, he leaves his wife pregnant. Also, Gulliver's wife was the one who told him that he should not set out on journeys anymore because of his recent journeys that have affected him heavily. However, Gulliver, being the stubborn stereotypical man he is, sets out on another journey due to his lack of control and thirst for adventure.

  1. He is a very stereotypical irresponsible man, leaving his pregnant wife and children for his own adventures, and it seems like a greedy thing to do, making him a bad father. However, in his defense, he has seen so many things, and his friend asked him to sail with him.
