I Love Lucy stared Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz, who plays Mr. and Mrs. Ricardo and Vivian Vance and William Frawley who played Mr. and Mrs. Fertz their best friends and landlords. The show took place in an apartment building in New York City, and Lucy who is a naive and stubborn redhead always got herself and her husband into trouble. In the specific show I watched from season one out of six episode twenty-one titles New Neighbors.

She was an American icon and the first lady of television during the 1950s. Lucille Ball changed how society views women. She not only changed the face of television, but she also paved the way for women, not only in show business, but within the business world.

She definitely didn’t take the typical 1950s housewife seriously and throughout the show Lucy showed willingness to push social boundaries, making the woman the hero instead. This show didn’t always align with popular views of most viewers, making them more intrigued and gave potential to make this sitcoms way of life socially acceptable. This continued to make I Love

The women, men, and children that live in Bom Jesus, for the most part, from the moment they are born have a very hard life.

(pg. 311) When asked, how many children would be the ideal family size, the women would answer between two to three children.

The answer to that question has many reasons and most of them are deeply rooted in the culture that the women live in.
