After watching The Bride of Frankenstein I began to realize that such a creature can develop feelings, love, and friendships. Frankenstein developed a connection with the old, blind man and grew to love music. Even thoughFrankenstein is unaware of his killings, he still develops tender emotion through the old man's music. Frankenstein recieves moments of kindness which suggests that there is some religious meaning to the monster.
Frankenstein is like a cybord in that he has no family or kinship. They both have a mixture of artifical and human parts. Both are also in between categories: natural and not natural. Cyborgs might have a human hand, arm, or leg but the way they are put together is non human. For both cyborgs and Frankenstein there is no hope for completeness because they can't share human history.
