Detailed explanation-1: -"Frailty, thy name is woman, ” so says Hamlet in his first scene (1.2. 6). Hamlet’s attitude toward women is notoriously sexist and stems from his disgust at his mother’s sexuality and seeming unfaithfulness to his dead father.
Detailed explanation-2: -In William Shakespeare’s tragedy Hamlet, Claudius establishes himself as responsible for the death and destruction of many characters through the heinous act of murdering his brother, King Hamlet. Early in the play, a ghost, who resembles the dead King, appears to Hamlet and tells him the truth about his death.
Detailed explanation-3: -He tells her to go to a nunnery, assaulting her with another double entendre insult. In the Protestant Elizabethan world, people used the word “nunnery” as a euphemism for “brothel.” Knowing that she is working for her father and Claudius, Hamlet accuses Ophelia of prostitution.
Detailed explanation-4: -He accuses Gertrude of lustfulness, and she begs him to leave her alone. King Hamlet’s Ghost reappears to Hamlet, but only Hamlet can see him.
