26 This quote tells the listeners of the tape on how the rumors started, and because of this rumor, people viewed Hannah only as the one with the hottest butt in the class, instead of who she really was. Analysis Hannah’s butt represents death because the rumors, which eventually caused Hannah to commit suicide, starts because of how everyone views her butt. However, Hannah’s butt is not what is significant here. It’s what others thought about her butt that affected on how the others viewed Hannah. As she was chosen to have the best butt in Freshmen class, people started to look for Hannah for only her butt and not for who she was. People started to take advantage of the fact that she was a girl and started to try to get her to sleep with them because then, the person who had slept with her would be the one to sleep with the girl with the best butt in Freshmen class. Hannah, being taken advantage of and basically viewed for only her butt, couldn’t take it anymore in the end, and decides to commit suicide. Her butt starts the rumors, which leads to her death and therefore, her butt is the cause of her death. - Ignorance Example Hannah’s butt represent ignorance, but her butt also represents the reason why people treated her without caring about how she felt. Since she was titled for having the best butt in the class, people only looked at her behind and liked her because of it. The night she was at the “Blue Spot,” where they sold Hannah’s favorite candies, a guy, with a
27 nickname of “Jack-ass Jimmy,” came in the store and grabbed Hannah’s butt. “My backpack was resting on the counter while I zipped it shut. Wally’s eyes were focused down, just beyond the edge of the counter, near my waist, and I knew what was coming. A cupped hand smacked my ass” (Asher 47-48). This shows that the guy obviously didn’t care about how hannah felt, but hit her butt because of the list that mentioned about how Hannah’s butt is the best on in Freshmen class. Hannah’s butt obviously got her into this mess, and therefore, her butt symbolizes ignorance. Analysis People, knowing that Hannah has the best butt in the Freshmen class, only hangs out with her and want to sleep with her because of her butt. Hannah repeatedly mentions that she wants to be viewed for who she is and not for her rumors, but nobody really cares about what she thinks. People view her for her butt and nothing else, which means that people are ignoring how Hannah really feels. Hannah says, “But what happens when someone says you have the best ass in the freshman class? Let me tell you, Alex, because you’ll never know. It gives people-some people- the go-ahead to treat you like you’re nothing but that specific body part”(Asher 44). This quote says that people ignored her as a person and saw her only as her butt.
