Humans always pretend that people that are different from them are inferior. This is true in almost all historical events‚ as well as in everyday life.

Duggan’s interpretation of "The Picture of Dorian Gray" as an allegory for hedonism is accurate when considered in the frame of the characters. While it is true that Dorian spends much of the story talking about how wonderful his life of luxury is‚ all that the reader perceives are the harmful effects of the life of the aesthete‚ due to the fate of his character as well as those with whom he interacted.
