Blanche disapproves of Stanley mainly because of his aggression. She got very upset about the whole radio situation. When Stella stuck up for Blanche for turning on the radio, Stanley got angry. He was already drunk by the time the girls got home. When Stella made him mad, he charged at her and causes a huge ruckus in the other room. After the assault, Stella and Blanche go to Eunice’s room. Later that night, Stella goes back to Stanley. Blanche was confused and angered by this. She even stayed up all night worrying. She couldn’t understand how anyone would want to be in a relationship like this and how Stella was acting like it wasn’t a big deal and that it was normal.
During the play so far, Blanche has made many comments about how Stanley is primitive. She doesn’t want her sister to be married to such a man. Blanche tells Stella how she is going to work to get her out of this situation too. We know that Blanche is supposedly “high-society.” She is very out of place in this area of New Orleans. Many times it is referenced that Blanche is too good for the place that Stella and Stanley live.
Blanche doesn’t like Stella to be married to a madman, as she puts it. Blanche says that even though she has no money, no job, has lost her estate, and is staying with her sister in her tiny house, Stella’s situation is worse just because of who she is married to.
