I want to write a female detective murder mystery. I have 15 characters; 14 women and 1 man. I want the male to be the secretary for the, Cavalcade Detective Agency. He is well educated, charming, and has an odd dynamic with my protagonist, similar to Della Street and Perry Mason. I want people to try to talk to him because he is the man so my detective can intervene and take charge. The problem is with the male as a secretary what decade's would be appropriate. I know it would have been unheard of before the depression, but what place in time after the depression? I need the client's to be uncomfortable, but not shocked. I want my protagonist to be assertive, and unshakable.
