Social Responsibility for Women in the 1920's
In the 1920's, everything began to change for women. When the 19th Amendment was ratified, it changed women's political and social lives. Suddenly women could go on a date without a chaperone and smoke in public (Modern World History). Some women, known as flappers, even started wearing shorter dresses. The suffragists who took the responsibility upon themselves to fight for equality, changed the lives of women forever.
