Exactly. Carrie is no angel. Not at all. And in addition, in Act 2 when Enoch gets more priggish, she gets more rebellious. She tells Julie about going to see a show in New York with Enoch, but they left in a huff because it the women were scantily clad. She sneaks back to see the whole thing the next day (and sees Enoch there as well). And then she reenacts the "scandalous" dance for Julie.

Yes, and it's important that the more outwardly feisty Carrie marries the conventional-minded Enoch, who can't quite smother her spirits no matter how hard he tries (and perhaps he in fact likes that about her), while the quiet Julie bucks what everyone would tell her, throws security and common sense out the window (the one by which she sits every morning?), and ends up with Billy. And then she stays unmarried for the rest of her life (or at least for the next 16 years).
