The main reason that Jordan Baker is described as begin contemptuous is because she is a scornful and disdainful character throughout the book. She, like Tom, looks down on others and does not really care much about anyone but herself. We can tell through the conversations that she has with Nick that she really does not have anything positive to say about anyone. Throughout the novel she is characterized as someone who sneers at anything that does not have to do with her or something that benefits her.
