  • The Modern Woman of the 1920S
    BECOMING MODERN: AMERICA IN THE 1920S PRIMARY SOURCE COLLECTION ONTEMPORAR Y HE WENTIES IN OMMENTARY T T C * Library of Congress Women’s Industrial Conference, Washington DC, January 18-21, 1926, panoramic photograph (detail) The MODERN WOMAN In this collection of commentary from periodicals, novels, advertisements, a sociological study, and more, we are not considering the “flapper,” the rebellious young woman exploring new freedoms who came to personify the twenties in later times. Here we study the phenomenon of the “modern woman” as she was revered or reviled at the time—newly enfranchised by the 19th Amendment, entering the job market and the political arena in greater numbers than ever, and redefining marriage, motherhood, and “womanliness” for a new era. Long established as the dean of modern “scientific” homemaking, Christine Frederick took on Christine M. Frederick the role of consumer advocate in the 1920s, publishing Selling Mrs. Consumer to enlighten advertisers on the unique aspects of marketing to the modern American woman. Selling Mrs. Consumer 1929 To begin with, it is very important to realize to the full the special position of women in the United States as contrasted with the rest of the world. Woman has never before attained, in any country, the psychological position that she enjoys in America. This status is so astounding to visitors from other countries that they often feel a sharp shock of surprise and revulsion; while even some of our young satiric novelists, like Sinclair Lewis and Louis Bromfield, who spend enough time in Europe to note the contrasts, are convinced that American women autocratically “rule the roost,” and that American men exist and labor largely to pour more spending money into their wives’ laps.

Parked in one place they cover more than 2,657,160 square feet. Driven in a line, five feet apart, they make a parade more than 53^2 miles long. Packed for shipment they fill more than 825 freight cars. And yet this is simply one average day’s output at the great Detroit plant of Dodge Brothers, Inc.
