Women and Their Changing Roles Women‘s Suffrage Flappers and Vamps Working Women The Double Standard

Women’s Suffrage The 19 th Amendment gave women the right to vote years after the Seneca Falls convention of 1848 A convention where women demanded the right to vote! The National American Women Suffrage Association (NAWSA) fought for women’s suffrage by organizing a large base of support. By 1912, many western states had given women suffrage. ch?v=SeOHPfsCtFo\ ch?v=SeOHPfsCtFo\

A Social Revolution: Flappers and Vamps An 1920s urban women who embraced new fashions and urban attitudes. An image of rebellious youth. They wore close fitting, felt hats; bright, waistless dresses an inch above the knees; skin tones silk stockings; sleek pumps; strings of beads and bracelets. They wore short hair, died black and “kissproof” lipstick. They became more assertive, they smoked cigarettes and drank in public. They danced the fox trot, camel walk, tango, lindy hop, and shimmy. Young women began to even play golf.
