The Lady or the Tiger? by Frank R. Stockton
5.0
Whether the lady or the tiger emerges, both options can be considered valid. However, before the final verdict, several questions need to be answered. For instance:
- Does the man desire the princess for herself or her title?
- Does the man want many women due to his handsome nature?
- Does the princess love the man?
- Does the princess love the man enough to release him so he can marry the beautiful woman on the other side, or is she selfish and wants him for herself so the tiger can have him?
I'm not sure what I would do in such a situation. On one hand, I'd like to think that I'm selfless and would want the person I love to live, even if they can't be with me. On the other hand, I know I'm jealous and don't like to share, but am I so selfish to want someone to die?
