Appearance vs. Reality: Machiavelli believes that on the inside, you can be good or bad. On the outside, you must appear to be good. This character Lady Macbeth shows to be true because inside of her, sense her change of bad deeds but on the outside, pretending to do good deeds. The discussion between Lady Macbeth and her husband changed her, she wants to try to act and help make her husband manly enough to do bad deeds.
Gender Roles: Lady Macbeth changed as a women into a man. Macbeth still acts like a woman for doing good deeds, so his wife is trying to help turn him into a man although he's too weak to do bad deeds with her. Apparently we would think that men are most stronger than women.
Loyalty and Honor: Macbeth was an loyal and honorable person to King Duncan at first, til then he suddenly been changed and wants to assassinate the king himself so he could take over his throne and his kingdom.
