In The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, women are portrayed as inferiors to men. In the 1920s, women were looked at as just something to look at. Women were just objects with pretty clothes and shiny legs. Their role was not expected to be intelligent or provide for their families, that’s what men were for. This book definitely showcases the stereotypical rich white woman in the twenties. Daisy and Myrtle both lay around all day and mooch off their husband’s money, that’s what they expect. Jordan

Some of these colors are white, yellow, grey, green, pink, red and blue. However, I picked white and green for my commentary because I think these colors have a special meaning different from the others.

Scott Fitzgerald plays around with the use of concrete colors to deliver crucial meaning about the lives of his characters. Set in New York during the roaring
