Greetings, iam Mary Brooks, Don’t miss me too much.
Ah, the flappers! Those wild and carefree ladies of the 1920s who were known for their short skirts, bobbed hair, and rebellious attitudes. They were a sight to behold - shaking up society with their daring fashion choices and refusal to conform to traditional gender roles. From their signature dance moves to their bold makeup looks, these flappers truly embodied the spirit of the Roaring Twenties. So grab your Charleston shoes and let’s take a look at what made these ladies so iconic!
Why Are They Called Flappers? [Solved]
Back in 1907, George Graves, an English actor, tried to explain the term “flapper” to Americans. It was basically slang for young female stage performers who were acrobatic and danced like a bird—flapping their arms while doing the Charleston. This dance became quite popular during that time and people would compete to see who could do it best!
Flappers were a group of young women in the 1920s who were known for their rebellious behavior and modern style. They wore short skirts, bobbed their hair, smoked cigarettes, and went to parties. They also challenged traditional gender roles by drinking alcohol, going out without chaperones, and speaking openly about sex. Flappers were seen as wild and daring - they weren’t afraid to break the rules!
