The way the father talks in the poem shows that most people in Jamaica have this type of accent. When they pronounce certain words it can sound like they are mispronouncing it, or trying to say something else such as when the father says "He dohn sey" he really means to say "He don't say" .

We discovered that the father was sexist after reading this text. This text was written in 1900, a time when thoughts were very different from what they are today.

The Father has a different way of seeing females than the Daughter. The Father thinks that all females are the same. The Daughter wants to change this perspective that her Father has. Since the poem was made in the 1900s, many men back then thought all the same. That men were superior to women. The Father repeats the line "a girl is a girl" throughout the text. The Daughter wants to change his way of thinking because things are changing and the way things people see are too.
