Creon, in Sophocles' "Antigone," exhibits a dismissive attitude toward women, reflecting the patriarchal values of his society. He views them as inferior and believes they should be submissive, particularly in matters of authority and governance. His disdain is evident in his interactions with Antigone, where he underestimates her resolve and capability, ultimately leading to tragic consequences. This perspective underscores his rigid adherence to power and masculinity.
Negatively is the way that Creon feels towards women in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon believes that it is weak to accept that women have anything worthwhile to do or say. He also believes that one woman is like any other. He therefore considers women completely replaceable.
That they do not belong is Creon's view of women as leaders in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon dismisses women as completely alike and completely replaceable. His favorite, Princess Ismene, most likely expresses his views when she says that women are not in the same league as men. She insists that men give out orders that women must carry out without question.
Sentence her to death is what Creon does to Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone deliberately breaks a royal edict recently issued by King Creon, her uncle and intended father-in-law. Creon tends to have a negative attitude towards women in general and towards Antigone in particular. Nevertheless, Antigone does nothing to try to get Creon to pardon her or give her a sentence other than death.
That this is not the way for women to behave and that the consequences are fatal are the reasons why Ismene begs her sister to obey Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Ismene believes that men dominate and lead whereas women follow and obey. She also believes that burying Polyneices and defying her uncle King Creon are impossible tasks that therefore must not be attempted. Additionally, she cautions that the punishment of civil disobedience is death and that Creon will execute her humiliatingly and painfully.
Straightforward communication and sutbbornness are Creon's respective strength and weakness in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, there is no misunderstanding Theban King Creon. He means what he says and says what he means. But that straightforwardness wears thin since he stubbornly says the same things over and over without any allowance for consequence or second opinions.

Creon's attitude toward women, as depicted in Sophocles' "Antigone," is one of superiority and disdain. He believes that women should be subservient and adhere to traditional gender roles, as evidenced by his harsh treatment of Antigone for defying his edict. His rigid views reflect a broader patriarchal society where women's voices are marginalized, demonstrating his belief in male authority and dominance. This attitude ultimately leads to tragic consequences for both him and the women in his life.

Women and his perceived enemies have the least value for Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon values loyalty and male dominance. He shows his disdain for disloyalty by denying to his perceived enemies god-given rights of all Thebans to below ground burials. He manifests his disdain for women by characterizing them as replaceable and thereby denying each woman her individual femininity.
