Question 1:
Why do Arlene and Champ go to K-Mart in "Miss Clairol?" What role does Miss Clairol play in Arlene's life? How does their relationship (Arlene and Clairol) reflect Viramontes' commentary on consumerism?
Question 2:
What is Arlene's relationship to Champ in "Miss Clairol?" What kind of message is Arlene sending to Champ by buying so many beauty products? Is Viramontes trying to depict a greater theme of self acceptance or freedom of self expression with her portrayal of Arlene and her obsession with changing?
