Life After the 19th amendment

The 19th Amendment was passed in the 1920's. The Roaring twenties! United States party decade. This decade was packed with parties, drugs, and prohibition. After the 19th Amendment was passed and the women went crazy. The parties got bigger and bigger. This was the time of prohibition. Prohibition was an amendment that banded alcohol. Alcohol was not to be sold or bought in stores, bars, or anywhere. This didn't stop people from making their own alcohol in their bathtubs or buying it from bootleggers. The women were smugglers too.

The women were empowered after the amendment was passed. Women shortened their skirts and cut their hair. The women in this era were called Flappers. They smoked cigarettes and drank in public. The women set standards after they received their rights. Before the amendment was passed women had long hair and to cover themselves up. In this decade, they wore short cocktail dresses and looks of pearls and jewelry. They were using their rights to the fullest. Not caring what anyone would think of them and they took advantage of their rights and ruled the roaring twenties.
