Being Jesse is no longer a game, it has become her life. She talks and walks like a white girl, forgetting all that she came from. To Jesse the childhood language of Elemeno is gibberish, the dead Jewish father is more real than the black faded one. Worst of all, Jesse laughs at the expense of black people.

When Evyn first saw Eleni, with her red lipstick, black pants, and high heels, she thought Eleni looked nothing like a college professor and a mother. Evyn made the assumption that she went partying every night. That is an example of her being judgemental.

While still married to Wilson, Myrtle does everything in her power to try and imitate the life she sees Tom and his friends living. She attempts to throw parties, similar to Gatsby, but they are almost all failures that demonstrate how much lower in class then Tom she really is.
