Xerxes and the leading men value beauty and obedience in women, particularly in their wives. When Queen Vashti defies the king's order to come to his banquet and to display her beauty to his guests she is deposed, not simply for her defiance toward Xerxes, but also because the men feared that their wives would follow the queen's example and defy their authority.
What do men value in women today, particularly in their wives?
