Mr. Wildish
Mr. Wildish is introduced as a man who finds the fantast women unattractive. However, the reader later realizes that Mr. Wildish is fighting for Gertrude's love and affection towards the end of the play. At first, Mr. Wildish finds Fantast women unpleasant, but later, he secretly loves them!
Gertrude
In Act Two, Gertrude is introduced as a woman yearning to find a husband to move out of her father's home. Initially, Gertrude gave a blind eye to more than two suitors who were pursuing her for marriage. Ironically, Gertrude realizes now that she was wrong turning away the men who wanted to marry her. Consequently, Gertrude accepts that her earlier perception of men was wrong.
Fantast women
The fantast women are the center of attraction in the play because they are introduced as fat and unpleasant women. However, the men in London where the play takes place are secretly dying to have them as wives! Therefore, Mr. Wildish and Bellamy's undying love for Gertrude confirms that fantast women are beautiful and qualify to be wives.
Communication and speech
The fantast women are proud that they are intellectually smart and they can communicate properly. Ironically, their communication is subject to ridicule. The reality is different because Fantast women's speech is blurred and inaccurate. Therefore, the assumption that fantast women are fluent is entirely satirical.
Bellamy
Bellamy is an interesting character in this play because he suffers in silence but hopes for the best in his chase for Gertrude's love. Bellamy knows that Mr. Wildish is after Gertrude's love, and now, he assumes that Charles is also perusing Gertrude. The irony of this context is that Bellamy has not officially declared his love for Gertrude, but he hopes that he will finally marry her, which sounds sarcastic to readers.
