Tituba has never been shy when it came to intercourse and normally spoke about it openly enough. To her it was natural and there was no shame in fulfilling her desires – at least 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 were 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 to him that she couldn’t his attitude and treatment towards her changed and he referred to her as a “common Negress”. The moment she couldn’t help he made it clear that she wasn’t valued.
