has
an "open jeering hatred" for the Party when she talks toabout it. To look at, she
appears to be the sort of girl who would epitomize the athletic ideals of the Party and the
Junior Anti-Sex League, to which she ostensibly belongs. Julia notes that she never
"shirks" anything and indeed always "yell[s] with the crowd," as this is the
only way to be safe from persecutionshe is lucky in that she is able to hide in plain sight,
because her physique and her youth give the impression that she is the sort of person the Party
would support and who would support the Party.
In reality, however, Julia is
violently against the Party and everything it stands for. She hates the Party and its moral
crusade, and she rebels against it by indulging herself in the ways she prefers and which she
knows the Party would condemn. For example, specifically, she is a highly sexual person who
enjoys sleeping with men, something the Party is against. She hates the Party because it
attacks...
