The correct answer is C. Flapper symbolized a postwar rejection of traditional values and attitudes.

The Flappers of the 1920s showed their rejection of societal norms through several different characteristics including:

- Clothing style - These women refused to wear traditional Victorian era fashions and instead focused on wearing skirts and dresses that showed their ankles/knees.

- Leisure activities - Instead of their life revolving around children, flappers focused on activities that made them happy. This included going to speakeasies, going out dancing, and riding bikes.
