"The sensibility for women that pleased you was a typical movie anachronism, i.e. a 21st century attitude superimposing itself on a time when such attitudes didn't exist."I don't know about that.
Women were taking over men's job's in the workplace, and with it, the whole concept of contemporary sexuality, was being turned on it's head. With the entire world at War, and the concept of "living for the moment", it was a time of great liberation for Women, in every aspect of their lives.
That it is was only to be temporary, and last until the men returned home at end of the war, was inevitable...at least until the development of oral contraceptives and Family Planning, of the Fifties and early Sixties.
