| Summary | "Kun naiset miehistyvät: Yksinäytöksinen pila" by Väinö Jääskeläinen is a play written during the early 20th century. This comedic work revolves around themes of gender roles and social expectations, exploring what happens when women start to assert their rights and independence in a rural Finnish setting. The play uses humor to address the evolving notions of masculinity and femininity, particularly as women gain more freedoms. The narrative unfolds in a forested landscape where characters such as Antti, Katriina, Amalia, and others engage in playful banter and explore interaction norms. The central plot revolves around a newly formed women's gymnastics society that embraces modern practice, including wearing men's trousers for their activities. This causes both comedic misunderstandings and tension with the traditional men and women of the village, who struggle to reconcile old values with the new ideas brought forth by the group of women. Throughout the play, misunderstandings, identity swaps, and humorous situations arise as both men and women navigate their roles and relationships, culminating in a lively examination of societal changes and expectations.
