George also contributes to accusing Curley’s wife of being a “tart”, by stating, In this quotation, George is warning Lennie to stay away from her.

In Of Mice & Men, the character Curley’s Wife is depicted as flirtatious, promiscuous, and insensitive. However, her husband Curley sees her as only a possession. Most of the workers at the ranch see her as a tart, whereas Slim, the peaceful and god-like figure out of all the men, see her as lonely.
