Men and woman define roles for woman.  When girls are born they are told to dress a certain way, do their hair a certain way, and do certain things.  Not all woman have the same advantages as men.  Woman tell their daughters on what to do and how to do it because they were raised in a certain way and they wanted their daughters to be raised the same way they where.  Sometimes even moms would decide who their daughter was going to marry, and they would choose for them.  Men would value woman less because they thought they weren’t good enough as they were.  Men gave the woman less attention and would treat them less just for being woman.  The title is important because its saying that the woman were invisible in the Chinese-American society.  Men would act like if they weren’t there at times that’s why the title is called No Name Woman.  The fact that her grandmother has no name is probably because she wasn’t important enough for her parents that they didn’t give her a name.  She didn’t have any power in the Chinese society because she didn’t have a name and people would ignore her the fact that she didn’t have a name and she was a woman.
