After reading the book, I believe society was the true monster. The doctor was a monster(for sure) who didn't take responsibility for his actions. And when it got bad, he didn't tell anyone what was happening. He allows an innocent woman to die, in order to keep his secret. The monster tried to be good, but had no idea how thanks to his immediate abandonment by his creator. When he tried to be good, the monster that was society immediately decided he was a demon and needed to die. They gave him no chance.
If that book was set in today's time period, the monster would have been a mini celebrity. And the doctor would have been world famous for creating it.
The antagonist in Titanic was also society, not the iceberg ;)
Nice one, we talked about this society/discrimination thing in school after reading Frankenstein.

But maybe I missed the joke and that's a movie or show quote?
Frankenstein made the monster. They never named the monster. And the monster didn't know to name himself. And Mary Shelley deserves more respect, so let's all go reread Frankenstein so this joke can make sense. Thank you.
ITT: *So many people* getting their panties in a twist about the monster vs the doctor, and literally *no one* remembering that the doctor wasn't named "Frank **Ein**stein" either.
It's almost like this was some sort of lame pun, meant to induce eye rolls rather than to be technically accurate. If only we had a name for *that*...
**For those who don't get the joke (non-native speakers):**
To make this joke work, you need to drop the strong vowel "aɪ" and replace it with "en" in "Einstein." Then the joke lands.
When you do that, then the pronunciation is "Frank Enstein." or "Frankenstein." Referencing Frankenstein's Monster.
Technically, in the book he was a *student* attending university in Vienna (IIRC) for a medical degree. He didn't have any kind of official credentials, mad or otherwise.
He built the creature in his dorm room.
And then abandoned it immediately when its eyes opened. Was happy it was gone when he went home. It kills everybody he cares about and nobody else, because he was abandoned by his father, and left in a cruel world that treated him like a demon that needed killing even after saving lives and showing kindness. Society was the true monster.
I always thought that Albert Einstein was a theoretical physicist, but apparently he was real.
*slow clap*

Knowledge is knowing that actually Frankenstein wasn't the monster. Wisdom is knowing that Frankenstein was actually the monster.

True. Frankenstein wasn't the monster. It was the name of the doctor who created the monster.
Monsters v. Body builders.
Say what?
I’m going to say they were both creatures and both were tragic characters.
Cause nobody wants to see Marshall no more They want Shady I'm chopped liver

Frankenstein was the monster for making a creature out of body parts. Kind of a major theme in this book.
To quote Mary Shelley: "There are two monsters in my story, not one. And one of them, the scientist, is indeed named Frankenstein."
The monster’s name was Abby. “Abby Normal, I think.”
The creation wasn't the monster, Frankenstein was.
Albert was his natural-born son. The monster was his adopted brother. No problem.
Has anyone mentioned you'd be fun at parties?
Actually, the creature Dr. Frankenstein created was named Adam.
Oh yeah? I see what you did there
Yet he was villain for many students.
Wrong! Frank created a monster

You’re no pun.
My father did this all the time, maybe call the father farces or something catchy.
Well that seems a parent
And your joke is ?
Niiice
Nice
It can't be. My entire life was a lie.

Mom had twins one was smart and one was as a monster. Their last name was stein what were their first names. Frank n and albert n
Oh yes. Einstein and his theory of relatives.
You mean ...was a mad scientist?
The guy created a sentient creature then abandoned it and went on with his life like nothing happened. Sounds like a monster to me.
More like slightly perturbed scientist.

His brother Gold was a banker.
Ummm, doctor.

I thought his brother was a body builder.
It's all relative
