In the play by Shakespeare "Othello", the perfect example that reflects 'Loyalty leads the women to tragedy' is Desdemona. She is the wife of Othello who is very loyal to her husband. As described in the play, she is beautiful and near to perfection. Othello couldn't believe that Desdemona married him, causing him to doubt constantly of his wife's love and eventually killing her. Desdemona remained loyal to her husband which blinded her from the truth that she is facing the last hours of her life.
