The term flapper meant a woman who dressed and acted outrageously, not a sex worker. Flappers would engage in social life and smoke and drink.

[@victoriakathleen01]

It meant sex worker in the 1600s and then started taking on that new meaning in the 1890s :)

[@andrewtime2994]

​@@victoriakathleen01 "Flapper" referred to a woman who wore her shoes unbuttoned, flapping as she walked. They did this to hide flasks there, so it was particular to prohibition.

[@andrewtime2994]

@@victoriakathleen01 The history of words is always interesting. I heard this on Ken Burns documentary on Prohibition, so there wasn't any reference to earlier uses. Slang terms do get around though. I wonder if it was galoshes or just leather shoes. Those Victorian high button shoes that needed button hooks would have taken some time to put on, a woman who was getting in and out of her clothes might not have bothered. Then it was an act of rebellion against fashion, then a great place to hide your flask of gin. Or a different word that took on that meaning. Very interesting, thanks!

youre right that flapper dresses were never that short, but flappers were not sex workers! they were actually feminist who liked to push back against social norms by dressing "scandalously", drinking, smoking, and other such things :)

[@VideoDotGoogleDotCom]

Everybody knows what a flapper is, but do you know the etymology? The word origin in all likelihood is ’prostitute’. "The word "flap" was slang in the 17th century for a prostitute[1]: by the late 19th century in England "flapper" could mean either a very young prostitute......."

[@Feytouched.Locket]

@@VideoDotGoogleDotComno one knows how the word came to be, which means all we have at best is speculation, and no definitive thing. While it’s fine to speculate, it’s also important to not take speculation as fact, and to embrace modern definitions, not just old ones. Many words we use today had wildly different meanings than they do now, but that doesn’t mean the word is related to that. Maybe it came to be in the same way some people will tell young woman they “look like hookers” as a way to speak negatively about how they dress, and maybe the women of the 1920s decided to reclaim the word. We’ll never know.

[@saratavington5435]

By the time the "flapper" era came around, it was actually not a term for prostitutes. It was, from the 17th to late 19th century, but by the time the 20th century arrived, it was pretty much officially defined as a dancer or stage performer, and then by the 1920s, it was basically any young woman who went to dance clubs, because of the way they flapped their arms while doing the Charleston. So yeah, it's a word with a very long and complex history. Not just "Sex worker".

[@Sparklingjm1]

I don’t think it particularly matters if they actually were sex workers, the girls who wore the flapper style and lived the life were still looked down upon as women willing to sleep around. and even though our society now romanticized the flapper as the “IT” style of the 20s, that’s not actually what most of the population wore. And that distinction matters. It would be like saying the style people wear to a rave is the style that everyone is wearing now when clearly that’s not true. But I do agree, the term has a rich history!

[@di7209]

@@Sparklingjm1Yep like mostly rich young upper class women dressed like that and many were expected to settle down once they got to marriage and motherhood age. Though many didn’t of course bc being rich freed you from a lot of social norms

Flapper absolutely did not mean sex worker it was a term used to describe the teenagers of the time... you were correct about the hemlines not being that short though.

[@angemariano97]

In the 1800s it was!

[@SirenSarichan]

Sorry late to seeing your reply, The term flapper was used to refer to a young/teenage person far earlier than the 1890s, as far back as the first 1600s the term was used to describe a young/teenage girl. Now there is evidence that the term Flap which in some parts of the UK was used to describe a female child prostitute but the words were separate, there was a brief cross over in the 1890s with the words getting mixed around... but as a whole the flapper meant young /teenage girl for most of history. 💜
