This could be due to Jekyll's unhealthy compression of his emotions and his more "evil" thoughts and actions, that a "expected Victorian gentleman" cannot express, as they must be men who act on morals, a decrease in their reputation can ruin their life. so it can be argued that it was the high "Victorian standards" that led Jekyll taking the path into becoming what he is now.]]> 2021-01-04 12:59:44 UTC https://padlet.com/16mohtalu/1wgbu910l5waqj68/wish/1051698272
