That's not what it's about, the book is literally about a beta orbiter who throws parties in the hope of impressing Stacy

If you read the great gatsby for the plot you are missing the point of the book

What a shit book. A bunch of rich stupid fuckers destroy each other and then the bitch fucks off in the end leaving Nick holding the bags. THE GREAT AMEFICAN CLASSIC.

He does actually impress the girl though. The point is that he can impress her and have an affair with her but he can't have her as a wife because of the invisible lines of class separating them. She also doesn't really respect him despite finding him exciting and attractive, but that's not because he's beta but rather because her privilege has made her so frivolous and irresponsible that she is incapable of respecting anyone, which is a nuance that is kind of lost in most modern gender discourse.

She will never marry him because she instinctively knows she is better than him. And she's right. Blood will always tell.

God I hate that bitch
