53. The Wife, In The Bedroom, With Picture Wire: Ruth Brown Snyder
The Roaring 20's brought on a lot of changes in the United States. The economy started booming and many people saw a 22% growth in their paychecks.
It was illegal to consume or make alcohol in the United States due to Prohibition, but many more Americans began to drink or drink more.
And with the passing of the 19th Amendment, women were given the right to vote.
This new era brought on a new type of woman called a "flapper."
She danced, drank, smoked, and voted.
She cut her hair, wore make-up, and partied until dawn.
She was sexually liberated.
People started to believe that women were sexual beings with wants and needs,
and if they held back these desires, they would self-destruct
Ruth did let go of all her inhibitions but still managed to destroy herself as well as those around her.
