The helpful difficulty of Lord of the Flies is the conflict between 2 competing impulses that exist interior of all human beings: the instinct to stay by policies, act peacefully, shop on with ethical instructions, and fee the sturdy of the group against the instinct to gratify one's instant desires, act violently to acquire supremacy over others, and enforce one's will. This conflict may be expressed in extremely some techniques: civilization vs. savagery, order vs. chaos, reason vs. impulse, regulation vs. anarchy, or the wider heading of robust vs. evil. in the time of the radical, Golding friends the instinct of civilization with sturdy and the instinct of savagery with evil.

It would of been different if there were any girls at all because they always take control and always know what to do in a situation like that. Girls would never run around an island like wild savages.

If there were girls in the group they would take over and there would be peace on the island. They would also make the boys write their own papers.

No I don't think so. Females tend to be a civilizing influence on males.
