Paradoxes presented by Jordan Baker!!

" 'Anyhow, he gives large parties,' said Jordan, changing the subject with an urban distaste for the concrete. 'And I like large parties. They're so intimate. At small parties there isn't any privacy.'" pg 33

This paradox was quite funny to me. Jordan seems to be full of them. Her philosophy about things seem, at times, so backwards. But in reality I see what she is saying. She speaks that at Large parties one is able to hide themselves, almost, within the enormous crowd and carry on conversations without the risk of being heard. They won't likely be heard because of the noise from all the other party-goers chatting amongst themselves as well. Also in smaller parties one is surrounded by people that one cannot escape from if one wanted alone time. It is not as easy as in a larger party because of the same people who are all there and can easily hear everyone. Jordan seems to see this when she makes his statement to Nick.
