They were young women in the 1920's who were rebellious and wore makeup, talked openly about sex and drank.

Flappers were naughty girls who wore their hair "bobbed", short dresses (all the way up to the knee!), rode around unchaperoned with boys in cars, drank illegal bathtub gin, danced wild and "immoral" dances like the Charleston, possibly had sex, and generally tried to have a good time. This was all fairly scandalous at the time. Most girls were not flappers. (Bobbed hair was hair cut short, sort of between the ears and the shoulders).
