On the first page, Dorothy's companions rudely discuss homophobic and transphobic rumors about Elphaba: "she was castrated at birth", "she was born hermaphroditic or maybe entirely male", "she's a woman who prefers the company of other women", "she's the spurned lover of a married man", "she IS a married man", etc.

Early in the book, Elphaba’a mother explains how she’s not sure who the father is because she took some sort of tincture that made her pass out. Her listener shames her for this, and the victim blaming is simply accepted.
