As in all patriarchal societies, in England, women face with the problems stemming from gender inequality. In order to struggle with these problems, women should come together, and say 'we'. However, due to various reasons, women cannot say 'we'. This paper aims at discussing that middle class women in England do not say 'we' since they have been split up into two groups as the Angle-woman and the Eve-woman, and while the Angel-woman and the Eve-woman are competing for the interest of the man, they regard each other as the other. For this purpose, a short-story by Fay Weldon entitled “Weekend” has been studied. In this short-story, Weldon presents the female characters representing the Angle- woman and the Eve-woman, and displays the conflict between these two estranged groups. At the end of the study, it has been seen that since each group others the rival group, women cannot say 'we'.
