The correct answer to question one is B) The Flapper. Although Flappers were inspired by the earlier Gibson Girls that had existed 30 years before, they rose to prominence during the 1920s. Their hair was bobbed, they listened to Jazz, were sexually active and promiscuous and far more independent and assertive than their older female counterparts. Good examples are renowned actress Louise Brooks and Daisy Fay Buchanan from the novel The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald.

The correct answer to question two is: True. The driving notion behind this societal shift was The Lost Generation. WWI or The Great War as it was known at the time greatly shocked and horrified both the veteran survivors and civilians throughout all belligerent nations. The Spanish Flu pandemic also killed millions of children and youngsters. Young people (including women, e.g. Flappers) considered that life was too short and uncertain to not enjoy it as much as possible since it might be over soon due to war or disease. they also criticized the rampant materialism of their generation.
