PLEASE HELP ASAP!

I have to write an essay about a Greek mythical character and the cultural significance. I chose the myth about Arachne and Athena, which is about a prideful weaver, Arachne, who has a competition with Athena (the one who practically invented weaving). Arachne wins, but Athena was upset, so she turned her into a spider. I need help figuring out the cultural significance about this story. I need two to three separate cultural significances. I have attached a picture of the plan below, so hopefully that will help. Thank you!
