The three witches also predicted that Macbeth, now the Thane of Cawdor will one day become king. Macbeth has accepted this but then he becomes impatient and wishes to become king right away. His beautiful and strong minded wife, Lady Macbeth pressures him to kill King Duncan. Lady Macbeth is truly evil and is ashamed that her husband is not manly enough to do as she says. She clearly states that she wants to kill Duncan in many graphic ways. Lady Macbeth is hungry for power and it's almost like she wants to become king herself but as we all know that wasn't allowed. I believe that the way that their society visualized women, gave Lady Macbeth that spark of fire or hole of darkness that evolved into the hate of men.
