Although Piggy and Simon both display similar character traits, they do not share a mutual respect for one another. Both characters support Ralph and value civilization, but like the other boys on the island, Piggy finds Simon to be strange and weird. Simon is considered an outcast among the boys and is ridiculed by the others for being clumsy and shy and for acting differently. Despite his reputation for being a strange boy, Simon treats others with respect. Simon goes out of his way to help Piggy grab his glasses from the rocks after Jack smacks them off of his face and also volunteers to walk through the forest to tell Piggy the location of the hunting party. Simon looks up to Piggy and wishes to be his friend, but Piggy looks down on Simon as an outcast. Piggy does not hate Simon, but he does view him with contempt.
