Tituba has never been shy when it came to intercourse andĀ normally spoke about it openly enough. To herĀ it was natural and there was no shame in fulfillingĀ her desires – at leastĀ that’s what she thought until meeting Christopher.Unlike John Indian, every other man Tituba has been with seemed to have needed her for something, whether it be to communicate with their passed loved ones or to make them invincible. Their relationships wereĀ like bartering – grant their wishes for her pleasure.
Christopher was ready to fulfil her desires when he thought she could help him. But the minute she revealed toĀ him that she couldn’t hisĀ attitude and treatment towards her changed and he referred to her as aĀ “common Negress”.Ā The moment she couldn’t help he made it clear that she wasn’t valued.
