Curley is a fictional character from Of Mice and Men. In the book, as well as the film adaptation, her character was a person who was filled with talent and beauty.

Despite that, she was lonely, as she was the only girl on the ranch. She had no other women to relate to or confide in because she was surrounded my men. This was going on despite the fact that she had a husband. However, her and her husband were not the closest, because she used her femininity to seduce the other men who were on the ranch.

They think that she is a tart. Curley’s wife in mice and Men was a beautiful and talented woman. She is a lonely woman because she is the only girl surrounded by men on the ranch.

She was called a lot of name such as Jailbait or tart. She is a good looking woman, she wears too much makeup and dresses like a whore with red ostrich feathered high heel, red nails, and fitting dresses. She made her husband jealous by using her beauty power to seduce other Men.

Lennie is fascinated by her beauty and wouldn’t take his eyes off her. Her husband planted fears into other Men’s heart so they can stay off his wife.

They think that she is a tart.

Curley’s wife was the only female character mentioned in the novel. The male characters on the ranch feel threatened by her. They call her a tart because she is flirtatious and her husband is jealous and violent.

Old candy stated that he observes that Curley’s wife looks at Carlson and Slim in a seductive manner. He says that he thinks Curley has “married a tart”.

They didn’t suspect that she married Curley because she was pregnant; for money neither did they pity her for her marriage to Curley. Therefore, all other options listed above are wrong.
