"(Rosalind) was in a hostile world, and deliberately equipped herself to face it"
Rosalinds knows that the world is full of threats but she put up a strong front and disguises herself with a though facade. She "builds her own convincing creation" when she was a "sensitive, fearful, yet determined child” . This also shows that Rosalind is very self-reliant and depend on herself to source for weapon and protect from threats.
When the Spider-man says he will take Rosalind as his lover, “(Rosalind’s) eyes dropped” but “it was not surrender to the stronger character, the conqueror. It was loathing, a horror which broke her defenses from within.” à Rosalind is terrified and is made to be described a ‘child’ in the face of the thought of bearing Spider-man’s child. She had lacked the physical and emotional strength against a stronger character like Spider-man and she breaks down and exposed her possibilities of being harmed.
Therefore, Rosalind appears to be though on the outside (external) but is vulnerable in the inside (internal).
