The fact that such an ill-mannered person is accepted by society as a “gentleman” provides Shaw with an opportunity to expose the shallowness and hypocrisy of such a society.
Basic information of George

• “Why don’t you shave?”(too direct,contrary to the behaviour of a “gentleman”)

He was born in Dublin,Ireland.In 1879 he began to write novels,and in 1884 he joined the socialist Fabian Society,of which he became a leading number.

• Henry Higgins(a linguist in the drama)
• He is portrayed as being highly educated,but he is ill-mannered.
• “No,I don’t,who the devil are you?”P143(impolite)
“I say an ordinary London girl out of the gutter and taught to speak by an expert.I place her in Drury Lane.”(discriminational)
In a word,Higgins comes off much worse because of the fact that he has had all the civilizing benefits of wealth and education yet he is rude to the point of being boorish(粗野的) and ill-mannered.
