Monologue from Sheila Birling I feel extremely responsible for the horrid tragedy of what had happened to that young lady. On the other hand at the time it took place I was in a furious temper; I had tried on this dress‚ and well.... it just didn’t suit me at all!

This suggests that Sheila is very naive to the hardships that people of lower classes face in life. In addition

They construct their realities by how they perceive things‚ and once a perception gains traction within the majority of a society it gets internalized by them. Thus resulting in future generations inheriting the same perception by means of socialization

“The Bass‚ the River‚ and Sheila Mant” There was a summer in my life when the only creature that seemed lovelier to me than a largemouth bass was Sheila Mant. I was fourteen.
