Mrs. Dubose reinforces Scout's anti-girl identity by criticizing her appearance, behavior, and lack of femininity. She constantly berates Scout for wearing overalls instead of dresses and for engaging in activities considered "unladylike." This reinforcement of traditional gender roles pushes Scout to distance herself from typical ideas of femininity.
