Winston feels estranged and cut off from the female gender. Any woman that shows interest in him is a potential spy for the party. Winston sees women largely in sexual terms which reflects his own sexual longings and frustrations. Sex and women become a weapon for the party to inflict on males who dare to follow their sexual desires. Winston’s wife was merely a puppet of the party, the prostitute was the only thing that the party would look away from, and Julia would most certainly be his mean demise.
