What is Julia's worst fear?

[MuhMike]

I've got a socratic seminar tommorow in class, and one of the questions is concerned with what is Julia's worst fear? I would be happy with any input from anyone.

I just assumed that it would be anything that would have harmed herself

Julia was a sexual animal. She loved sleeping with men. They could have threatened her with altering her beauty, but it is ambiguously described and from the fact that she sleeps with older, less-than handsome men like Winston, I don't think that was it. Castration would have been terrifying to her.
By the way, the real tragedy for Winston was not his loss of Julia. It was the loss of his hidden world, like the coral in the glass. It was when he no longer accepted the memories of his mother as real- an interesting juxtaposition with sexual love.

Obviously this is a device by Orwell to have the reader impose their own worst fear in room 101. Orwell does not mention it hoping we will know our own fear and fill in the blank, thus making it much mre terrifying than anything he could have written.
