In the Wendy Rose Autobiography we see how Rose was out casted by her family. She could not find a side that could accept her. She was out casted from her father's side for her heritage on her mom's side, then she was out casted from her moms side for her heritage from her father. She struggled through life to be accepted, but never could seem to be granted the satisfaction of being accepted by her own family.
Julia faced similar obstacles in her life with her husband marrying her and leading her in a life of fantasy. He made her seem wanted but it only came out as a joke in the end. He denied her any financial gains, and portrayed her life as an insult. When her life came to an end he humiliated her and their son by stuffing them and showing them off as a freak show. This was a cruel punishment that he seemed to find satisfying.
In both stories there is a similar comparison of an outcast and being unwanted from their own families. Both Rose and Julia struggled trying to get their own families to accept them, but in the end neither seemed to be successful and lived their lives as outcasts, or in a similar comparison they were the black sheep's of their families.
