Scout being a lady?

Today in class we were talking about how scout was not a proper lady in 1930s. In the 1930s it was really hard since it was the great depression. There was not a lot of money and people didn't have a lot of clothes. People that did and had clothes the ladies had to wear dresses all the time. There hair was always curly. It was really hard for them since they had to stay home the whole time to be a housewife. They had to take care of their children and had to cook for their husband. If I was in the 1930s I would be really bored, because I would have nothing to do in my house. I would be all by myself. No wonder Curly's wife will always go to the ranch. Women had to have different activities and they could not do nothing that the men's did. Scout is really different. She does not wear dresses just special occasions., when she had to go to church with Calpurnia she wore a dress. She wears overalls all the the time and pants. I think she dresses up like a boy since she did not have a mother no one told her how to dress and Atticus did not care. Scout said that if she wears a dress you get to do nothing with a dress on. It is true for me it's sometimes really hard to were a dress and then you need to worry about a lot of things, for example if the dress is too short, does it show to much, and is it appropriate. It's not really easy to find a dress that is appropriate. It could be really difficult. You can't really do nothing with a dress you cant run, jump, and get dirty. In my opinion I will rather wear pants the whole time, because I can do everything and I don't need to worry bout nothing. Since it's cold in Minnesota my legs suffer. This also shows that Scout stands up for women's right, about how they don't need to empress a boy or men just to look pretty its not about there looks its about there looks. It's about there personality and why also women should do things that men do. A lot of things have changed the past years now women can have a better job and they can dress however they want. People won't judge. If people judge you by your looks those people are ignorant. No one likes people that ignorant. I think Scout is someone to look up to. To not care what people tell you to wear and just be yourself you are not trying to be another person.
