We see women primarily through the eyes of Hamlet in this play. Hamlet can't reconcile the fact that his mother, Queen Gertrude, married with his uncle, Claudius, so soon after the death of the king. Hamlet rants during his soliloquys that women are generally weak and fickle creatures. He laments their shortcomings labelling all women with the same faults that he attributes to his mother, "Frailty thy name is woman".
