Why might the Party ban dresses and perfume and make-up etc for women?

• It's expensive during war times and these are luxury items.

• It makes women less attractive/feminine and therefore discourages romance and desire.

• Big Brother hates women.

• It is another form of control of the population.

• It limits women's ability to dress and present themselves as individuals. Everyone looking the same encourages orthodoxy.

What appears in the room that scares and disgusts Winston so much?

• a prole woman

• Mr Charrington

• saccharine tablets

• a telescreen

• a rat

Why don't women leave a baby alone for two minutes in London?

• Rats will attack their babies.

• The thought Police will take their babies.

• Proles will steal their babies.

• Bib Brother eats babies.
