Charlotte Irrational Or Conservative

Are you a very conscientious, irrational, or rebellious teen? Well, the main character, Charlotte, is highly conscientious. She can be irrational, and she is quite the rebellious type. Throughout the book Charlotte changes from being a conscientious young lady to a irrational and rebellious sailor.

Another way to illustrate Charlotte’s irrationalness is when the captain tells his first mate to whip Zachariah. Charlotte repeatedly tells the captain to stop but nothing happens. So she takes matters into her own hands and takes the whip. THe captain takes the whip and starts hitting Zachariah more than he originally planned. Charlotte lightly flicks her wrist and creates a cut on the captain’s face. Charlotte, not thinking about what would happen if she did hit the captain only proves she is irrational. Since Charlotte clearly doesn’t think about hitting the captain, Zachariah is whipped until he is on the brink of death. Finally when Charlotte decides to join the crew she doesn’t even slightly think of what the Captain might think of her decision and of her doing something men would
