Status Updates From David Copperfield

Every time they call Dora his child wife I actively cringe. She is literally the same age as him, and the infantilization of women during this time period is alarming. Poor Dora :( I don’t know if she had some form of mental disability, but regardless no one helped her along properly. I knew she wasn’t going to live long.

Uriah is a bad guy, and intends to ruin a family for his own personal gain. I’m not excusing him, however am I the only one who feels that David is harder on him (to a ridiculous extent) than James Steerforth. James also ruined a whole family, and instead of preying on someone’s addiction…he preyed on someone’s love and compassion. But it’s okay cause he’s rich and pretty…what?
