(Nice Girls Don't Ask)

Content: In the 1950s, thousands of “social guidance” films were shown to shape behavior according to traditional gender norms. “Nice Girls Don’t Ask” excavates footage from vintage educational films to cast a subversive but humorous lens on the proffered rules and expectations. What was the cost of this behavioral straitjacket for a generation of women? Is the pendulum creeping back?
