EDITORS COMMENTS
This colorful lithograph titled "You ought to have been a man, Flossie!" captures the humor and satire of early 20th-century postcards. The image depicts two women dressed in men's suits, playing golf with a caption suggesting they should have been born as men.
The playful nature of the artwork reflects the changing attitudes towards gender roles and fashion during this time period. The women are portrayed confidently engaging in a traditionally male-dominated sport, challenging societal norms and expectations.
The vibrant colors and detailed costumes highlight the absurdity of the situation, while also celebrating the freedom to express oneself through clothing and activities typically associated with a specific gender.
Overall, this print serves as a reminder that individuals should be able to embrace their true selves without conforming to rigid stereotypes. It encourages viewers to question traditional ideas of masculinity and femininity, promoting inclusivity and acceptance.
Whether you appreciate it for its historical context or simply enjoy its whimsical charm, "You ought to have been a man, Flossie!" is sure to bring a smile to your face every time you see it hanging on your wall.
