Try Measure for Measure

You might try Isabella in "Measure for Measure" The play is off
the beaten path and is really very good - She is a nun who in
essence, seeks to blot out any womanhood through her association
with the church. Her use of language in the play follows that
of the men and not the other women, and she's contrasted by the
other female charachters who are all associated in some way or
another, with sex.
