6. Some people interpret Hamlet’s preoccupation with Gertrude’s sexuality to mean that Hamlet was sexually attracted to his own mother. Do you agree? Is Hamlet’s disgust with Gertrude’s sexuality justified? How does his view of his mother affect his treat

In my opinion, Hamlet is not attracted to his own mother, he is merely reacting to the fact that his mother married his father's brother without blinking an eye..... no suspicion, no remorse, no grief. He is appalled and sickened by her actions, particularly, as they have been enacted by his own mother..... the woman he should have been able to trust above all others. This is, of course, my opinion.
