*AllMenArePerverts[=/=]BuxomIsBetter: BoyishShortHair: Addie sports short hair which makes her look boyish, to the point that a barber mistakes her for a boy (to her anger), and Moze makes her wear dresses and ribbons in her hair to make it more obvious that she's a girl.

* IChooseToStay: In this case, with a person rather than in a place, but after Moze drops Addie off at her aunt and uncle's house in St. Joseph's, it becomes obvious from her behaviour that Addie finds the prospect of a comfortable life with her mother's relatives stifling. In the final scene, she decides to return to a life on the road with Moze, ostensibly because he still owes her $200, but really because she has grown attached to him, and he to her.
