Scout
I felt the starched walls of a pink cottonpenitentiary closing in on me, and for thesecond time in my life I thought of runningaway. Immediately. (14.24)
She [Calpurnia] seemed glad to see me whenI appeared in the kitchen, and by watching herI began to think was some skill involved inbeing a girl. (12.115 -116)

Atticus
Atticus accepts Scouts tomboyish behaviors,
He discourages fighting no matter the genderof his sons.He does not forbid fighting because it is anti-feminine but because Scout is far too old andtoo big for such childish things (9.82).Treating his children equally, Atticus alsodisapproves of Jems violent behaviors

Similarity in others Literatures
Little Women (Louisa M. Alcott, 1868, 1969)Jo March: is the tomboy prototype.Its bad enough to be a girl anyway, when I like boys games andwork and manners! I cant get over my disappointment in notbeing a boy. And its worse than ever now, for Im dying to go and
fight with Papa. And I can only stay home and knit, like a poky oldwoman! Ramona Quimbys Age 8 (Beverly Clearly, 1981):
Ramona: independent, curious, tomboyish, always getting intotrouble,not understanding the elements of the adult world that wereclosed off to her, or the tiring etiquette of everyday life.
Harriet, The Spy (Louise Fitzhugh, 1996)Harriet M. Welsch : she wants to know more than anybody wantedto tell herHer career choice, of course, was spy.
