    In Venus and Adonis and Antony and Cleopatra‚ William Shakespeare tells the tale of frustrated lovers who long to be desired by the person they love. Although a common plot in many of Shakespeare’s works‚ these accounts instead forefront the reversal of gender identities. Masculinity is questioned through vulnerable male figures; alternatively‚ this masculine role is appropriated by the female counterparts‚ which results in the male figures’ uncertainty and loss of identity. Venus and Adonis comprises

    since the first discovery of the Venus flytrap back in 1763‚ there have been many discussions over if this plant is truly a living biotic creature.
