- It’s the 1920s and for many women, especially young, unmarried, working ones, living in big cities, the times are brining greater financial independence. Combined with more open attitudes, and having grown up through the war, meaning many are also used to greater social independence, there develops something of a new type of women.

Matthew Stibbe, ‘Germany, 1914-1933: Politics, Society and Culture’ (Routledge, 2010) - this book is a great alternative to the GCSE textbook if you want a historically rigorous overview of Weimar Germany! It also covers the debate over the existence of the New Woman relatively clearly.
Cornelie Usborne, 'The New Woman and generational conflict: perceptions of young women's sexual mores in the Weimar Republic' in Mark Roseman, 'Generations in Conflict Youth Revolt and Generation Formation in Germany 1770-1968' (Cambridge University Press, 1995).
*I rely on an official GCSE textbook heavily for the purpose of making sure that what I’m teaching falls in line with the GCSE curriculum, the problem with this, however, is that this official GCSE textbook is a very questionable source, which fails to cite its sources, contains numerous errors and outdated interpretations of the history. It very much does not hold up to academic standards and should not be used for anything other than GCSE revision.
**Benjamin says read his book: global.oup.com... He is a cool guy (and even gave feedback on this script!) so I think you should too.

Finished my GCSEs and not doing A-level history but watching as I love your content and you got me an 8
Thank you and congratulations on your 8!! 🥳
It was a long, long time ago since you last showed up, welcome back.
Thank you! And yes it has been a while 😅
Thank you for the upload, currently revising Weimar for November mocks and this will be a big help
Revising already in September... you'll ace those mocks!
@@Alonglongtimeago Hopefully! Using your videos previously managed to land me a grade 7
@@Oh_HotSausage I mean 7's already acing it but I'm manifesting you a grade 9 because why not go bigger and better! ☺
@@AlonglongtimeagoYour manifesting worked! Managed to get a grade 9 in my mocks, thank you so much for making these videos
@@Oh_HotSausage OMG congratulations!!! and obviously you're welcome for the manifesting 😁
I done my GCSEs this year and am not doing history in further education but I got a 6 because of your amazing videos but unfortunately you didnt do many on the topics I was bad at (american west 1800s). But even though I am not learning History in school anymore I am watching your videos because they are oddly calming. Thank you!
Also congratulations on your degree and best of luck with your masters! I know you will do fantastic at it
Thank you very much and congrats on your 6! Main problem with the American West is I'm also bad at it and don't like it very much so tend to avoid it 😅
@@Alonglongtimeago Yeah there is a lot of content in it so it was our (my class) least favourite and was so glad to move onto Civil Rights and Vietnam after it
she's back!!! (and in time for my gcses)
now that's what I call good timing!! 😄
Ayyyy so happy you started posting again! I hope Uni is going well for you 🙏🏼 thank you for all that you do for history students 🎉😂
Aww thank you!! 😊 The undergrad went very well, we're yet to see how the masters goes 😅
@@Alonglongtimeago Great to hear you graduated! Good luck with the masters :)
Doing my history a level after doing thr gcses this year, yet im still here bc your videos are rlly good
And we're doing Germany again (I'm malting, it could've been anything else and it was Germany again) but 1871 to 1991, so we might go through this again
Thank you! and yes it looks like Weimar might be back on the cards for you...!
@@Alonglongtimeago damnit, thanks anyway. I'll most likely be back once we do then
@@drdusclops2386 more Weimar is a good thing ;)
yay finally a video :D, also im doing my gcse this year...wish me luck (im probably gonna need it)
Good luck indeed, but I'm sure if you're here in September you won't need it ;)
@@Alonglongtimeago fair enough, i probs will need it when exams actually come tho lol, but im currently working at a grade 9 so i hope all will be well for me
Thank you for sharing. A Very informative and well-presented video. I love your art 💕^^
Thank you, pleased you liked it and the art!! 😊
so glad I found this channel !!
Can you do more 'how to answer' videos for cold war questions??
Thank you! More 'how to answer' videos are very much on the agenda, although I'm not sure the examples will be cold war questions as I don't have as many example answers for them handy. You should still be able to use the method anyway no matter the topic :)
This video was literally uploaded about 15-20 minutes after I subscribed! I really like these videos and hope your Masters goes the best! Is it in Germany, just wondering (I remember from the Q+A video that you knew some German and had a German version of the channel at some point)?
And congratulations on your History degree :)
Thank you :) Excellent timing and pleased you like the videos! Excellent guess also, I am indeed studying my masters in Germany and I'm very looking forward to it!
Noch ein faszinierendes Video! Ich wünsche nur, dass ich zurück zu GCSEs gehen und Geschichte auswählen könnte, dann würde ich dank dieses Kanals ohne Frage Topnoten bekommen!
Vielen Dank ☀️ Das kannst du und sollst du auf jeden Fall tun. Breche deinen Bachelor ab und geh wieder zur Schule.
@@Alonglongtimeago Sie sprechen deutsch? Ich dachte sie wären Englisch, fremdsprache? Oder familie oder so?
@@parsifal40 Ich bin tatsächlich englisch, aber kann auch Deutsch (ja als Fremdsprache) sprechen und habe vor zwei Wochen einen Masterstudium in Deutschland angefangen, also wohne auch in Deutschland ☺
@@Alonglongtimeago Impressive how good you speak the language! i wish i was as proficient at english haha but welcome to Germany, I hope you have fun, definitely try out the ice cream its really good also triangle potatoes are a must for a student. im sure you already know enough and have german friends but if you still have any questions let me know
@@parsifal40thank you! you sound plenty proficient at english tho too ☺ ngl I really want to try spaghettieis - there's an ice cream place about 5 mins from my house so maybe I need to hit it up! I've not heard of triangle potatoes, where can I get my hands on some...? 👀
30k soon XD
27 to go 👀
Good luck with your master's Jasmine🌟
Thank you! I might need it 😅
Sehr gut erzählt! Ich weiss nicht warum, aber dieses "neue Frau" Konzept erinnert mich an Albertine aus dem Buch Traumnovelle. Wunderbares Video!
Danke schön!
@@Alonglongtimeago keine Buch-Expertin!🤣doch doch! Eines Tages werde ich darüber erzählen! Spoiler: es ist sehr 'Freudian'😆
Congrats on getting your degree!
