“You must create a female for me, with whom I can live in the interchange of those sympathies necessary for my being. This you alone can do; and I demand it of you as a right which you must not refuse to concede.” (Shelley 87).
This is yet another comparison of Frankenstein to god. Supposedly, when god created Adam, he realized that man must have a companion, and in turn created Eve. In this story, since he was the creator of man, only he could create a companion, a woman. This passage says the same about Frankenstein; since he created this monster, only he could make it a mate.
