Women in the Workplace Modern More higher education More jobs available Working (especially single) women more accepted

Women in the Workplace Traditional College quotas Barred from many jobs (doctors, lawyers, etc.) Paid less than men Expected to quit if they marry or become pregnant

Women in Politics Modern 19th amendment finally grants women right to vote Activists like Alice Paul become role models for change Women slowly gain influence

Women in Politics Traditional Only about 35% actually vote in a survey in 1923 they surveyed women in Chicago that had not voted in the mayoral election. About 1/3 said that they lacked interest and another 11% said that they did not think women should vote at all. Finding child care difficult Often still discouraged by men Feared women voting as a bloc

Women at Home Modern Marriage more often by choice (rather than arranged) Divorce rates double in 1920s Marriage viewed more as equal partnerships More free time due to compulsory school and new appliances

Women at Home Traditional Main role to care for home and children Husband still supposed to be breadwinner Looked down on if you worked as a married woman

Women in Society Modern Flappers Shorter hair, shorter skirts, make-up Seen as a free modern woman Smoking and drinking in public becomes more common New lively dances Dating (rather than arranged relationships Sexual freedom Symbolized a revolution in both manners and morals

Women in Society Traditional Double standards Expectations in behavior still different for men and women Flappers looked down on by traditional church goers Flappers in minority Most women did not readily embrace new behaviors

Rights for Women Margaret Sanger Advocate for birth control and sex education Saw birth control as a benefit for society as a whole Received huge backlash for ideas Arrested on more than one occasion Worked with low income women and opened birth control clinics Evolved into Planned Parenthood Still looked down on for ideas on Eugenics

What were Sanger’s views on the morality of sexual behavior? Why might some people take issue with Sanger’s ideas? Due tomorrow! We will also share some of your Flapper projects tomorrow
