Scout gets into a fight with Francis after he insults Atticus for defending Tom Robinson. The result is that Uncle Jack intervenes and punishes Scout for her behavior without fully understanding the situation.
Scout's a tomboy and by calling her a girl Jem was basically saying she was a sissy.~It was an insult because Scout grew up with only Jem and Atticus so she always wanted to be "one of the guys." By calling her a girl he pretty much was calling her a sissy. He thought a girl was a "sissy." But everyone knows not all girls are "sissy"s.

Insult is a noun (an insult) and a verb (to insult).
Atticus explains that "niggerlover" is a derogatory term used by people who are ignorant and have strong prejudices. He tells Scout that it's meant to insult someone for being fair and just toward black people, and to not let such words affect her sense of morality and compassion.
The word 'insult' is both a noun (insult, insults) and a verb (insult, insults, insulting, insulted).Examples:Look, a two dollar tip. That is an insult. (noun)You can't insult someone with that large an ego. (verb)
Like all slang it just tends to start with one person and spread so it's very hard to pin point it's origins?I imagine it was someones response to an insult once, such as "Your a ugly" reply "Your mum's ugly" which would have been simply changed/shortened to "Your Mum".To insult someones mum is generally a no, no to most people so can be seem as the ultimate insult..
