This man is Curley. He goes out with the men who work on his father’s farm to get prostitutes. His wife is very aware of what is going on with her husband, but she does not really love him. She has to deal with him because people back in that day should be married at the age they are at. He does not let her speak to anyone that is not him, but that does not stop her from trying. He is very possessive of her and controlling. People might argue that the lack of women in this story is because it is simply not about them so they are not needed. Even if that was true, which it is not, that does not explain why the only women that does show up is treated poorly and not as an equal. Also the other women that are talked about do not have names, for example: Curley's wife, the girl with the red dress, and the different prostitutes. There is only one other women that we do get a name for, and that is Aunt Clara. She is Lennie’s Aunt, the one who cared for him when he was
