Power imbalances can happen in relationships of any kind, but data shows that those with large age gaps are more at risk to this phenomenon.

But as I aged, I realized the term “girly-girl” was said only with a negative connotation and string of insults. Girly wasn’t cool. Girly wasn’t smart. Girly wasn’t strong. So I shed my dresses for basketball shorts and swapped my favorite color from pink to blue. My tomboy stage was in full swing by the time I was ten.
The stage was decorated with various Christmas-themed embellishments, giving a warm and welcoming feel to the school’s auditorium as students gathered for the performance.

Hoover wanted to show us all how morally questionable domestic violence can be when true, passionate love is at issue. I think that Hoover created this book with the intention of introducing this viewpoint into the new adult category.
The girls are sheltered, being raised by strict, religious parents, though these traits seem to fall more heavily on the mother. Their father is a math teacher, and the girls receive public schooling; however, they are not shown to have any sort of social life, their spare time spent within the confines of the home. The sisters’ ages range from 13-17, each a year apart, however they seem to have been stripped of their own autonomy and independence, controlled by their upbringing.
Many times I get carried away by the labels that others put on me, and I make myself believe that they are all true. I guess that happens since I still don't know myself at all. Or maybe, because throughout my life, I have always been surrounded by people who have tried to shape me according to their pleasure.

She looked at her own body, her face, the tell tale bulge of a bag under her eyes and the beginnings of…crinkles on the skin around her eyes, mouth and forehead.
