Tom&#8217;s behavior is also consistent with these physical attributes.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nick talks about his observation of Tom hitting Myrtle and criticizes Tom&#8217;s immorality. However, Tom&#8217;s violent demeanor is not just a result of his personality; it is also connected to his riches, which shields him from accountability. It would appear from moral considerations of any kind.<\/span><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">His treatment of both his mistress and his wife demonstrates his lack of social skills. In addition, he treats his business dealings with Myrtle&#8217;s husband as a joke, which emphasizes his lack of empathy and seeming immunity to guilt.<\/span><\/span> <span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">He offers to sell Wilson a car as a pretext for dropping by and setting up a meeting with Myrtle. Nick is even invited to watch with him.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nick&#8217;s assessment of Tom&#8217;s wealth is strongly related to his aggressive and dominating nature. Tom is not as vulnerable to failure as other people because he comes from an &#8220;enormously wealthy&#8221; family and\u00a0is physically strong and appears to be made of brick.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Tom has a distinctly stupid look to all of this. While he is not completely stupid, he is still mostly unaware of\u2014and uninterested in\u2014the thoughts, feelings, and lives of those around him. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Tom is almost the complete opposite of Gatsby, who maintains his vulnerability in spite of his wealth, being described as &#8220;completely without taste, culture, or sensitivity&#8221;. Tom is said to be above the need for praise, whereas Gatsby aspires for it while the two men lack taste and culture. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: How Does Nick Describe Tom Buchanan in Chapter 1?
