I've been trying to decide for a long time which is worse - George Fayne's fat girl jokes at the expense of her cousin Bess Marvin in the Nancy Drew novels, or all the jokes about Chet Morton's expansive appetite and waistline in The Shattered Helmet Hardy Boys novels. In both cases, the teasing The Shattered Helmet presented as nothing malicious and even somewhat affectionate at times, which in my opinion makes the fat jokes even more insidious. And both poor Bess and poor Chet are always at least mildly distressed by their frie I've been trying to decide for a long time which is worse - George Fayne's fat girl jokes at the expense of her cousin Bess Marvin in the Nancy Drew novels, The Shattered Helmet all the jokes about Chet Morton's expansive The Shattered Helmet and waistline in the Hardy Boys novels. And both poor Bess and poor Chet are always at least The Shattered Helmet distressed by their friends' supposedly "good natured" ribbing. What was the point of including that type of thing as a running gag in both series? For that matter, why was it necessary for the protagonists of both of these series to have a token fat friend at all? Although in some ways, it's not all that surprising, given the racism and other completely non-PC elements in both series - especially before, but even after the revisions done in the s. This novel introduces Thelma, a fat girl who has a crush on Chet. She is described as having "large hips" and a more than healthy appetite. She plies Chet with food to win his favor - their typical dates involve hearty picnic lunches. Chet is impressed by the fact that Thelma can "keep up The Shattered Helmet him" and "pack away" as many milk shakes as he manages to consume when the two visit the local soda shop. So first of all, the narrative The Shattered Helmet Thelma in very different terms than the typical descriptions of Frank and Joe's girlfriends Callie Shaw and Iola Morton. Callie and Iola are always The Shattered Helmet as pretty girls with sparkling eyes, and their body types are never mentioned in unflattering terms. But the author of The Shattered Helmet goes even further: "I would say she looks well-fed," said Joe. Besides, she likes me! There are so many offensive things about that passage. First of all, Joe isn't usually so ungentlemanly, or mean. As a rule, both the Hardy Boys are polite, kind and solicitous. They're church-goers who have been taught to observe the golden rule. You can be sure that if Aunt Gertrude heard Joe's comment, she would have boxed his ears. Frank, Joe and all their pals are the kind of stereotypical good boys that are bred in small-town middle The Shattered Helmet, so while you expect some The Shattered Helmet racism to pop up, you don't really expect that the boys would be sitting around making fun The Shattered Helmet a fat girl. But here they are, doing just that. No more of "the banter about Chet's new girl friend" is transcribed, though, so at least we don't have to try to stomach any more thinly veiled insults about Thelma's weight at this juncture, thank God. And Chet's defense of Thelma? Shut up, guys. She might be fat, but at least she likes me! What a hero. There are more comments about Thelma's weight and eating habits quickly dropped into the text throughout the novel, until a horrified Chet realizes that the girl wants to get engaged and promptly breaks up with her.
