Answer: she is trying to prove to him that women are better at keeping secrets then men
Explanation: She keeps the secret that she has been cheating on her husband for some time
The Wife of Bath's tale shows that women are not always able to keep secrets, just like men.
In The Wife of Bath's tale, she includes a side-story about King Midas from Greek mythology and his wife. The lesson she is trying to show about how women keep secrets is that women are not always able to keep secrets. In the story, King Midas' wife could not keep the secret that he had donkey ears, even though he explicitly told her not to tell anyone. This demonstrates that women, just like men, can struggle with keeping secrets.
