They are not a lot of women characters in the story. I think that Daisy's long-time friend, Jordan Baker is shown to be rather aloof and not reliant on anyone in particular. She has her own money and sort of observes the lives of the filthy rich around her. Daisy Buchanan on the other hand is completely dependent financially and psychologically on her husband Tom's wealth.
