Themes
Gender
No matter what social class people were in, men were always seen as having more power over women than the other way around
Gerald Croft took advantage of Sheila Birling as well as Daisy Renton, using Daisy as a mistress, while being engaged to Sheila.
-
Class
Priestley is trying to show the past existing class levels, how Eva Smith/Daisy Renton was treated vs how Mr (Arthur) Birling was seen
Because of the high level of class the Birling family (and Gerald Croft) had, all of them easily took advantage of the power that came with it.

Sheila Birling
" I went to the manager at Milwards and I told him that if they didn't get rid of that girl,
I’d never go near the place again and I’d persuade mother to close our account with them"
-
Age
Priestley believe that the younger generation was the generation that would lead change in the world, he was very pessimistic about the older generation
Sheila represents the younger generation of the time (begin change), Gerald Croft is in the younger generation, but has the views of the older generation
