Curley's wife acts as a plot device and is a manipulative, flirtatious woman who cannot escape her marriage to Curley, a man who has just as many flaws as she does. She foolishly ignores her mother's advice about her future, naively thinking she is going to star in movie pictures, but instead she gets married which she is not ready for (especially since she chooses Curley to be her husband).
To the men of the farm she is rightfully considered a "tart", a woman trying to escape her husband although she is ironically inescapable herself. The men try to avoid her sexual advances for fear of losing their jobs, but the narrow-minded and selfish lady cannot see that.
Obviously Curley's wife is in the wrong on every subject she stands on and sexism doesn't play a roll in Steinbeck's point whatsoever (By society she is considered to be above the lowly farmers, Negros, and mentally disabled, as her disrespect for them proves, but she is looked down upon the farmers themselves because she is quite simply an airhead) but near the end of the story you genuinely feel sorry for Curley's wife and see her pain, you see all of the foolish and naive things she has done and how ignorantly spiteful she is of her mother for trying to give her advice because she wanted better for her. In the end her foolishness leads to a tragic end.

In "Of Mice and Men," Curley's wife is described as a young, attractive woman with full, rouged lips and wide-spaced eyes. She wears a lot of makeup and has a flirtatious manner.
Curley's wife gave Slim "the eye" in the novel "Of Mice and Men." This gesture implies flirtation or seduction, suggesting that Curley's wife may have been seeking attention or validation from Slim.
After accidentally killing Curley's wife in "Of Mice and Men," Lennie flees to a nearby hiding spot in the brush by the Salinas River where George had instructed him to go if he ever got into trouble.
"looloo" "jailbait" "tart" suggests that she is a tramp
Curley's wife claims that the men won't bother them in the barn because they are all out playing horse shoes.
Curley's wife, in Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men," had the potential to be a successful actress or entertainer. However, societal norms, her lack of support, and her loneliness confined her to a life of discontent as the lonely wife of a ranch worker.

The author of this put no allegory into this tale, so she symbolizes a dumb woman who married a retard, it is so she relates to retards like you.
