Can you identify models of female and male behavior in the Odyssey?

Certainly, Penelope,
Odysseus's wife, is presented as a model of proper female behavior. She is often identified by
the"heedful Penelope," which emphasizes her obedience and loyalty to her husband,
despite the fact that he is missing for ten years after all his living comrades from the Trojan
war have returned home. Penelope not only holds down the fort at home, raising their son
Telemachus, but she also manages to stave off the suitors who seek her hand (and
wealth).

Telemachus is also held up as a model son and Odysseus as a model
heroic man. Telemachus is loyal and brave, challenging the suitors and sailing to try to uncover
more information about his father. And Odysseus displays his own bravery, his respect for the
gods, as well as his intellect and physical prowess too. All three are exemplary in their
behaviors.
