Flappers were controversial in 1920s society because they challenged traditional gender roles and norms, embodying a new sense of female independence and liberation. Their fashion choices, such as shorter dresses and bobbed hair, along with behaviors like smoking and drinking in public, shocked conservative segments of society. Flappers represented a break from the past, embracing a more modern lifestyle that many viewed as morally questionable or rebellious. This clash between the old and new values contributed to the broader cultural tensions of the decade.
