atsby, Bud and Warren all have a common desire: to love attractive women. Gatsby's love for Daisy began when he was a young military officer in Louisville, but when he left to fight in World War I, she married Tom Buchanan. Then, when the rich Gatsby reappears in West Egg, he must choose who he loves most. Rather, Bud, a cold young visitor who gets a new job that makes him millions, meets the love of his life Darien who only cares about his money. Warren has passionate feelings for Bernice but when she cuts her hair, Warren's love for her suddenly diminishes. Aristotle Onassis, a Greek shipping magnate once said that “if women did not exist, all the money in the world would be meaningless.” Through texts and films in America, women are seen as a luxury who only cares about looks and money. On Wall Street, Bud Fox's life is completely turned upside down when he is offered a job with Gordon Gekko. Going from a cold caller, with a decent salary, to a billionaire's "side kick" really messes up Bud's life as he is now surrounded by richer people. One night, in Gekko's Manhattan penthouse, Bud notices a very attractive interior designer named Darien Taylor. Gekko then says "I'll make you rich, Bud Fox, rich enough to afford a girl like Darien." The fact that Gekko claims that women can be bought is simply absurd. Women should be cared for and loved, not just seen as a luxury that accompanies wealth. Gekko is saying that attractive women only like rich men. He is also inferring that rich men like women who focus on looks and beauty. Darien is an example of someone who is all about looks. For God's sake, she's an interior designer. Everything about her is appearance, who she's with, what... middle of paper... women knocking on their doors. Two examples of "hunted partridges" are Gatsby and Bud because women constantly hunt them for their wealth. Through the movie Wall Street, the book The Great Gatsby, and the short story Bernice Bobs her Hair, women are seen as luxury objects who only care about money and how they look. From these pieces it can be determined that rich men are sought after by women. Additionally, women who pursue rich men, like Darien and Daisy, worry about their appearance. They also have this feeling of needing money. The sad part is that rich men, like Bud, find great pleasure in having an attractive "little crazy" in their life and this continues to push them to get more money so that they can continue to live this wonderful and luxurious life. Money is life and for some people life means having an attractive, greedy and luxurious partner.
