Two Strict Definitions

Hitlerjunge Quex presents very strict and specific gender roles. Whenever we see women portrayed within the film they are filling one of two roles: that of the caretaker or that of the temptress. Specifically the film delineates between these two roles on the basis of political orientation. Whenever we encounter a communist female she is either tempting Nazis and luring them to her party or generally being promiscuous with members of her party who she's already seduced. Nazi women on the other hand typically fulfill the role of the caretaker and are in some way looking out for the men of their community.
