Can we say "Desperate Housewives" everybody?

Just a little clip that I could not resist. Think of the small red car as Desdemona's and the larger black car as Othello's....and then just enjoy.

Every person is capable of love, trust, loyalty, and devotion. There are those who chose not to honor those qualities, we see them with basements full of Ramen Noodles and a rainbow array of cats pooling at their feet. There are those who disregard those rules for a night, and experience, or the thrill of the game. They are those that we see in their mid-forties sitting in bars by themselves. There is nothing in writing stating that a person can only survive a relationship with a military-type discipline. Live your life and love who stays along for the ride.

For Desdemona, the story was a little more tragic. We have all been in the position of not being able to convince others that we were in the right. We have all been back ed into dark corners even when we were originally the ones in the light. Whether a person chooses to accept that fait or not is their choice to make. Desdemona is normally viewed as a determined heroin. She fought for her marriage to Othello countless times and proved her independence as well as her loyalty. So why must we feel sorry for her in the end?

Desdemona was a pawn in Iago's game. She was the perfect piece to play not only because she was so close to all of the power that Othello held, but she was also was a woman and her reputation was easily damaged by the simplest of misunderstandings. No one will deny that Iago was smart, and those same people will not deny wanting to hit him over the head with a shovel.

The similarities between the story of Othello and Desdemona and the tale of Romeo and Juliet are also definite. Both tragic love stories, both young couples falling in love too quickly, both end in disaster with a misunderstanding to blame.
