@@Дора-в7я This was to preserve marriage and family unity; and prevent households from economic hardships. I'm sure single women could open bank accounts. I had a divorced great aunt who was a schoolteacher. I don't know if she had a bank account...but she lived very well!
@@CHKhouri My grandfather would always tell us that back in the day people in Los Angeles were the same as they are now just that they dressed different, weren't as dirty and the town was less populated than today. That's it. They were jerks back then too. 😂

This film tries to indicate that women could not buy or sell property in the 1950s. Maybe, in some areas of the country. Not in all though. In 1718, in Pennsylvania, an act was passed allowing women to own property. My great grandmother owned property in 1950 in Vermont too.
I think it really depended on where you lived? In many spots in the 50s. It was highly discouraged that women could not own property. Obviously it wasn’t always a law in the book but it was there.
It appears that somebody assigned a camera person to collect stock footage of women's contemporary fashion. The camera would have been highly conspicuous yet these women respectfully ignore it and carry on as normal.
Wilshire Boulevard close to the Brown Derby Hat restaurant and Ambassador Hotel where Robert F Kennedy was shot. I lived two city blocks from this area in 1960 that is now called Korea Town for some reason, back then it was middle class americans from all over and diverse not mostly Korean.
Stop the sound on the Trivia balloons, make them smaller and put them in the same place where they don't interfere with video. Like the trivia but just not how it is presented.
This is when it was segregated. That's why it was so nice. I think it's shocking what desegregation did to our country, and even more shocking people are too cowardly to talk about it. My God! LA was so beautiful! It makes me want to cry. Our schools never showed us this. In school they are lying it was better before. They say these people were racist but these people lived in peace.

fyi.. years are not possessive, nor are they contractions. Never put the apostrophe before the “s” when describing decades. Incorrect: _Women could not buy or sell property in the 1950's._ Correct: _Women could not buy or sell property in the 1950s._ Incorrect: _Most women worked as secretaries, bank tellers and sales clerks in the 1950's._ Correct: _Most women worked as secretaries, bank tellers and sales clerks in the 1950s._ However, the following is a correct usage of the apostrophe, since now we have a contraction: _Women in the '50s did not have the rights they have today._ You must use an apostrophe to show possession, of course. The following is correct: _The Twist was a 1950's dance._
I like the colorized old films, but why the misinformation? Women could buy, own, and sell real estate long before 1950... beginning in 1900 in California.
"Standin' on the corner watching all the girls go by...." I bet the average waist size now is considerably more than 27.5"! 26% of women in the 50's were adulterous? I wonder what the percentage was for men? A lot of uniformity in the way the women dressed and nothing that would have been considered too flashy! Uniformity was the name of the game in the 50's.
In the '50s, men were more concerned with bust sizes, especially of movie stars (the term "superstructure" was common in that era, and actresses' measurements were frequently publicized).
Pretty weird colors, looks like all frames were just washed in either light green, grey, white or black, so yeah, needs a Lot more work to make it look even remotely like what it was back in the 50's. Maybe leave it to the experts in future.

The women looked very elegant back then
When people cared about their appearance, minded their own business and had somewhere to go.
And didn’t get bothered,by someone( highly possibly a dude) filming them..

Women could own property starting in the 1700s. By the way, these women look fabulous. They walk with grace, beauty, and dignity.
Women in the US until 50s couldn't even open a bank account. They couldn't take a home loan.

Such a beautiful time in Los Angeles history. Much has changed since this.
Were ppl rude back then? Were they calmer?

Yes the comment bubbles are downright communist.
@@randyrauch Nonsense. Why fall for every bs angle?
So my great-aunt who had a new house built in 1924 and lived it for more than 50 years didn't own it???
My past life 1940s-1950s. Miss this era

I think that’s a good guess of what was going on
My guess is that these are models. Most women I think would've been bothered or offended being filmed like this. They seem too ok with this. 🤷♂️
All natural , beautiful , classy , ❤️
Any tattoo , implants, or fake people
The age of elegance.

You are doing GREAT work here. Very important. But PLEASE stop with the sound FX on the text balloons...it kills it...trust me.
True. And the constant captions of 'most woman ' instead of most WOMEN.
I just wish i could watch these vids in pease without the ridiculous texts
When the Brown derby was still around.i would've loved to go there today if it was still here.
Ruined a nice video with blurbs popping up peddling untruths.
American women are the most beautiful in the world.
Society sure has degenerated since then wow...
Sheesh. Who wrote the bubbles? Insane. Seriously. See a psychiatrist.
Those were the days Anbassador Hotel the Brown Derby cool fashion LA women...
Nice heels.
This is 1950s Pro Sport of Girl Watching.

Che belle donne che eleganza
BS Women couldn't buy Property. I had a maiden aunt who owned 3 houses with no husband
all dressed like sofia loren
Why’d it throw on the random button about women not being able to own property? It’s not even true and distracted from the video.
On the Internet Archive where the blue link leads one to, the original b&w film clip is titled "Streetwalkers."
What did they do for entertainment and leisure? My best guess is listen to the radio and go to the movies, right?

Pull up the drawbridge and stay inside, Justin.
Your teacher wasn't a real history teacher.
What do you mean "segregated"? Los Angeles wasn't in the South; it wasn't legally segregated.
My mama (1943 💔 2011) was born in the south..She married at 15 to get away from segregation and moved to Toluca Lake.
I visited LA in the late 80’s, had to check out the Brown derby. Was it I love Lucy that made it famous?? I can’t remember. I know it was a TV show.
Yes but not this Brown Derby I think it was the one in Hollywood that was featured on I Love Lucy
Yes, you are right. It was the Brown Derby restaurant. It was the funniest of all the Hollywood episodes. 😂
Which Brown Derby location is in this video? The one on Wilshire Blvd.?
Looks like Wilshire Bvd and Alexandria Street.
the heavy handed ''lady facts'' was a real turn off. no more pop nostalgia for me

I haven't seen, or heard spoken, the word "adulterous" in years.
They need some fast food blubber and tattoos

Back in those days ladies didn't used to deodorant
Yes, they did: Stopette, Fresh, Ban, and others. There are 1950s deodorant commercials on RUclips.
Deoderant was invented in the 1880s so, yes, they used deoderant in the 1950s.
In the 50's both my Mom and Dad used Arrid brand cream deodorant, came in a small jar - the cream was very soft & smooth.

Women couldn't buy or sell property in the 90s in Oklahoma!!
All women could sell property, or just a specific woman? Confusing.
woman could not buy or sell proper!y but they could own property right? pay someone to make the buy
That's why America was great back then because women new their place.
And men new how to spel.
@@billzigrang7005lol 😂
First of all, learn more English. Secondly, learn how to spell correctly. Third, spell check.
It's women - not woman.
You know those were all trans women, right?
