New Family Roles Shifting relationships between men and women. Basic rules that defined proper female behavior began changing. Greater sense of equality Break from traditional roles

The Flapper Young women of the era who defied traditional ideas of proper dress and behavior. Chopping off their hair, raising their hemlines, wearing make-up, smoking cigarettes, drinking alcohol and going dancing in clubs.

Flappers Suggested a lifestyle of great independence and freedom. Dorothy Parker, “She’s not what Grandma used to be.”

Modern Trends Popular symbol of the 1920s that was used in advertising, movies, and literature. Why do you think the Flapper, a controversial image and lifestyle, became such a well known representative image? New Trends and cultural changes can result in conflict over traditional values. Modern Trends? Select one image that represents a current social trend and write a short essay explaining and analyzing the image, how it reflects the trend, and why the image and trend are significant.

Urban Vs. Rural Flapper crazy took hold in the cities and represented the growing divide between cities and country side life. Country women either disapproved of the flapper lifestyle or considered it bold and reckless. Older supporters of women’s rights

Conflicts Over Values Rural America represented the traditional spirit of the nation: hard-working, self-reliant, religious, and independent. Cities represented changes that threatened those values. Rise of the KKK
