Maybe the reason is that some boys pushed her off because in their point of view biking is only for boys. (Feminist) 3. It may also be perceived that the reason she fell off is because she was in a hurry because she is being bullied by her rich classmates because she is poor. (Marxist) These are just some of the critical approaches we will discuss.
