Their Eyes Were Watching God

what is the meaning and feelings embodied in the quotation: “This business of the head-rag irked her endlessly. But Jody was set on it. Her hair was NOT going to show in the store. It didn’t seem sensible at all. That was because Joe never told Janie how jealous he was. He never told her how often he had seen the other men figuratively wallowing in it as she went about things in the store … She was there in the store for him to look at, not those others”

Jody was a possessive of Janie. He saw her as a sexual possession. He wanted her to cover her hair so that no other man could see it.
