Why is Martha afraid of Virginia Woolf?

Martha is not afraid of Virginia Woolf. The title of Edward Albee's play "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" refers to a fictional male character who is afraid of facing his own harsh truths and vulnerabilities, rather than being afraid of the real-life author Virginia Woolf.


Who was Virginia woolf's son in the movie Who is afraid of Virginia woolf?

Virginia Woolf was not a character in the film adaptation (or stage version) of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf." The title is based on a joke Elizabeth Taylor's character (Martha) devises at a party; she changes the lyrics to the song "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf," for comic effect. Martha and George do not have children in the story. Their "son" is more of an inside joke; another of the many sick games that the couple plays throughout the movie.
