I only remember one scene in which two named female characters talk about one of them adjusting to a new place. It is almost dubious. It is shortly discussed then they go on to talk about a boy. However, it will also be very hard to pass the reverse of the test.

Not sure what bit Dwij is thinking of, but the film passes on another brief moment:
Dorothy: Pass the sulfuric acid, will you?
Susan: What's the pH in that?
Dorothy: Seven.
Before and after this they talk about boys, but still, that nails it!
Lucky really, cause it's a very feminist film, the girls run rings round the boys!
