What does daisy and tom think of gatsby's parties in The Great Gatsby?

Answer 1

But the rest offended her-and inarguably, because it wasn't a gesture but an emotion. She was appalled by West Egg, this unprecedented "place." that Broadway had begotten upon a Long Island fishing village-appalled by its raw vigor that chafed under the old euphemisms and by the too obtrusive fate that herded its inhabitants along a short-cut from nothing to nothing. She saw something awful in the very simplicity she failed to understand.Daisy and Tom are old money. They like status and reputation. The people gathered at Gatsby's house are no particularly well known (except for a few), and they behave openly in a manner that was not traditionally accepted. Tom asks Nick, "Did you notice Daisy's face when that girl asked her to put her under a cold shower?" He is implying that Daisy was offended by the behavior that would cause a woman to get drunk enough at a party to ask such a request of a stranger. Daisy tries to defend Gatsby, and the party, by saying that many people come who are not invited, suggesting that it is only these people who behave so badly. It is the "commonness" and the freedom of the gathering that offends them - and their rigid social expectations - so much. Sources:http://www.enotes.com/great-gatsby/

Answer 2

Daisy is kinda confused because Tom is very wealthy and he can keep her status the way she wants it to be. And at the same time she loves Gatsby and she knows that he has the new money not the old money. Therefore no matter what happens between her and Tom she will still go for Gatsby.

Answer 3

Daisy sees Gatsby's parties as extravagant and flashy, but ultimately lacking in substance. Tom, on the other hand, views Gatsby's parties as excessive and vulgar displays of wealth. Both Daisy and Tom are critical of Gatsby's lifestyle and social circle.

Answer 4

Daisy does not like Gatsby's party. It is too much like an amusement park. When Gatsby figures out what she thinks, it disheartens him.

Answer 5

Gatsby thought that Daisy never loved Tom and he expected her to leave Tom so that the two of them could be together.

Answer 6

it makes gatsby feel like he is undesired
