Disagreements In Lord Of The Flies
Throughout the book Lord of the Flies, the boys had many disagreements and arguments. At first the boys solved disagreements by voting but soon that system didn’t work. When things didn’t go his way Jack decided to leave the group and went into the forest. This shows Jack’s immaturity since he just walked away instead of facing it. It also shows that Jack isn’t afraid to leave the group and go out on his own. Overtime Jack’s one person group became a larger group of boys where Jack controlled. When Ralph and Piggy, two of the few boys that didn’t join Jack’s group went to confront him about Piggy’s stolen glasses, it ended with Piggy being killed and Ralph being stabbed by Jack. This shows that the boys couldn’t work together and agree on things
because it just led to violence. If this situation was replaced by girls they would have worked together better than the boys. First of all, there wouldn’t be another group created like what Jack did. It is very unlikely that a girl age 12 would walk into the forest alone just because of a disagreement. Girls like having a sense of security and being in a large group obtains that so there is no way they would leave the “sense of security”. If there are disagreements girls wouldn’t get violent like what happened with Jack, Ralph, and Piggy. Studies have also show that that females are very empathetic beings so inflicting pain on others is something they would not do. Another reason why girls won’t get violent when there are disagreements is because girls don’t like to confront to people. Also at that time period were expected to be modest and not outspoken and voice their opinions. Society has shaped the girls to not have much of an opinion so even if there were disagreements among the girls they wouldn’t feel too strongly about it.
