Fast. "Flappers" were women in the 1920's who openly disdained conventional behaviour, including drinking alcohol (which was illegal during that period) openly, smoking cigarettes in long holders, dancing provocatively in clubs, snorting cocaine (which was not yet illegal), wearing their hair bobbed (cut short) and short dresses, and engaging in casual sex, including "petting parties" (where the main activity was sexual foreplay with a variety of partners).
