Sample assignment: about the topic, “New Woman”

In the 1920s, the growing consumer culture and popularity of first-wave feminism challenged Victorian notions of modesty and self-restraint. Nationwide, a generation of “new women” emerged who expressed increased liberation through flapper fashion like bobbed hair, the pursuit of companionate marriage, education, and new forms of socializing like unchaperoned dating (TAY Ch. 22). Chapter 22 of the American Yawp notes that participation in this lifestyle was often inaccessible due to race, age, or socioeconomic class. The “New Woman” movement is significant because it reflects America’s changing culture including advancements in first-wave feminism like the 19th amendment, and a decline in biblical authority and sexual taboos.
