After reading William Inge’s Picnic, I believe Madge makes the wrong decision. Leaving Flo and Millie, she goes to Tulsa and, obviously, upsets Flo. I do not question that Madge, an eighteen year old, knows people think she is pretty, knows Flo favors Alan, and knows Flo does not like Hal. Alan says the following to Madge: “I don’t care if you’re real or not. You’re the prettiest girl I ever saw” (101). Hal says the following to Madge: “And you’re a woman, baby, whether you know it or not. You’re a real, live woman” (143). Alan views Madge as a doll; Hal views her as a real person. Because Madge sleeps with Hal, it is obvious she is attracted to him; because Hal calls Madge a woman, she is astonished. I believe Madge follows Hal because he is the first boy who lets her know she is more than pretty. Yearning to be with someone who makes her feel genuine, she follows him and, additionally proves her lack of common sense. Hal has no money, and he mentions living in a hotel basement. Most of the time, mothers know best and, clearly, Madge should listen to Flo.
