The writing style in this book is fast and continuous. Nothing is left out. It sort of makes me think of a journal because his writing style reflects his feelings at any given time. I wonder how Kerouac recorded what was going on as all of this happened.
At first it seemed like Jack was a womanizing jerk, but as the story continued I realized that he's a guy who is tempted like any other man, but he cherishes women more. In Denver he wanted to prove to the girl that sex can be beautiful, he has a different sense of depth when in a relationship.
It is hard to determine how Jack feels about women. At times he longs for them, at other times he doesn't seem to be too concerned with them, he always thinks they are beautiful. I think that since Jack doesn't seem to have any big issues with his mother he doesn't feel much hate or attachment for women.
