Did men in the 1920's like the women's new bobbed hair styles?

Please explain why or why not

did they feel threatened??

This is for a 1920's paper and any other info on 1920's would be extremely helpful...especially if it deals with the general sense of disillusionment after WWI for small town america!!

thanks

Women bobbing their hair was just another form of teenage rebellion. In itself it didn't matter much, but the women who did it got boyfriends because they also rebelled against their parents, stayed out late, and generally weren't watched as closely as other women of their time. They were wild. They were crazy. You get the picture.

The bobbed hair did become a style by the end of the 1920s. Women didn't have to spend hours brushing and washing and setting their hair and they liked the time they saved. It became a mainstream fashion.

Probably early in the 1920s when it was still a rebellion sensible men didn't marry flappers (the wild young women), but the girls who weren't so wild--the good girls. By the end of the 1920s when the bobbed hair became the norm, men just accepted it. After all, what could they do when all the women were doing it?

Oh, the other thing that the flappers managed to do was change the hemlines. Before the flapper era, hemlines were ankle length. The flappers got them up above the knee (just barely in most cases). When the flapper era was over, the hemlines went back down to below the knee, but no longer ankle length.

I assume you know that this response doesn't even asnwer your question. How can it win best answer when it doesn't even answer the question you posed. Geeezzzz. Why even both to answer the question when an irrelevant answer is selected as best? Report It

If the style was around very long then of course men liked it. Women do not wear outfits nor styles that repulse men. However the new look did appear more "manly" and it was a marked change from the longer hair commonly worn following the Spanish-American War. But I certainly think that men DID like it and that is why it was around until the longer, curled hair styles of the 1930s took over.

As with every generational style, the young men probably liked it and thought it was cool - the older men probably saw it as pushing the bounds of what is traditionally "womanly".

that style was women's rebelion against men.

it made women to look like men. now days its normal for women to ware pants, but back then it was not, it was too manly, and women always had skirts and long hair.

so it was not liked by all the older man, but was new, so liked by males. this happens now days too, like short short skirts, or jeans that shows girl's underware.
