Sybil Birling
Owner of the Brumley Women’s Charity Organisation
Key Information
Upper Class
Owner of her own charity
Capitalist
Living in patriarchal society - had lots of power for a woman
ES denied help from her charity as she shared the same last name as her
Really the things you girls pick up these days
Mrs Birling is very traditional and fixed in her views
Girls of that class
Looking down on lower class - capitalist
Your behaving like a hysterical child tonight
Parent ego and doesn’t treat her daughter like the adult she is
I’ve done nothing wrong
Like her husband doesn’t believe she is to blame for ES death
Go look for the father of the child, it’s her responsibility
Doesn’t want to help power class
Doesn’t know the father is her son
