The Changing Role of Women in the 1920s

1.Why did the role of (some) women change in the twenties?
Because since World War I, women had got used to work as men, and in the 1920s they felt that they were not just house workers for longer.

2. Analyze the following advertisement:
A-It's an advertisement that encourages women and girls to struggle to work and live as guys, telling them that they should act independently, and work and earn as much money as them, in this case, as graphic designers.

B- I quite agree with it. I think that it is a positive message for that times, though in muy opinion it should be beyond that. It's not that "even" they can earn as much as men, is should be that they must earn the same for the same jobs. So I think it's good, though it could be much better nowadays for example.

C-I do, as well as I think that not only women should support women, or men support men, but everyone should support everyone else, leaving the genre apart.

3. Are you ready to walk in someone else's shoes? Imagine what it was like to be a flapper in the Roaring Twenties. Choose a name, age, civil status, city, economic class, job... and describe your daily routine on a Friday:
My name is Audrey, and I'm 29 years old. I'm not married, though I'm dating the gorgeous Jack Wilder, the director of the main advertisement company in Los Angeles. Lucky me! Today is my favorite day of the week, because after work I always meet Lilly and Emmanuelle to go shopping. I work as a secretary in a publicity magazine, it's incredible how many people I meet everyday! After our visit to the shops, I'll go to have a little meal with Jack, though not too long, he is really busy today. At about 9 pm, I will go to "La Rose", which is the trending bar at Los Angeles. I will go with 6 of my friends, Lilly, Victoria, Sarah, Coco, Louise and Clara, and we will have real fun! Today is Double M's Night, Martini and Marlboro. My day couldn't be better!
