Detailed explanation-1: -Lady Macbeth persuades Macbeth to kill King Duncan by preying on his sense of manhood and courage.
Detailed explanation-2: -Lady Macbeth ridicules Macbeth for behaving so weak and naïve. He is supposed to be a man who is brave and fearless, but instead he cowers like an infant. This describes how it was expected for men to be courageous and undaunted.
Detailed explanation-3: -After Macbeth receives a prophecy telling that he will someday be king, he shares the news with his wife. She in turn urges him to take matters into his own hands and kill the current ruler, King Duncan. He hesitates at first, but she convinces him to take action.
