Question

describe portias feminine modesty​

Answer 1

Answer:

The male critics viewed Portia’s “wordplay [as] harmless, a form of feminine adornment” which Hankey deemed misogynistic. The male critics seem to find that the intellect displayed by Portia was inconsistent with what women are capable of so some even concluded that Portia’s defense of Antonia was preplanned by Bellario.
