Shaw has distinctly reversed gender role through the characters Louka , Catherine and Sergius. We can observe the masculinity in Louka's character while provoking Nicola. Again her firmness has been lightened through her interaction with Sergius. Mrs. Petkoff has also a touch of masculinity in her dominating part over household works in absence of Mr. Petkoff.On the other hand, Sergius lacks firmness before Bluntschli. He can stand up steadily neither before Raina, nor before Louka. There is a faint touch of effeminacy.
In "Arms and the Man," George Bernard Shaw reverses gender roles by portraying the female character, Raina, as the practical and rational one, while the male character, Sergius, is depicted as idealistic and romantic. Shaw challenges traditional gender expectations by highlighting Raina's intelligence and independence, while critiquing Sergius's traditional notions of masculinity. This reversal adds depth to the characters and commentary on societal norms.
