EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the spirit of the suffragette movement and the struggle for women's rights during the early 20th century. The photograph, dated 1913, depicts a determined woman in bloomers being stopped by a policeman at the entrance of a public toilet. Dressed in an elegant blouse and hat, the woman's voluminous bloomer outfit, which consisted of trousers worn under a long skirt, was a radical departure from the traditional feminine attire of the time. Bloomers, named after Amelia Bloomer, a leading advocate for women's rights, were seen as a symbol of women's emancipation and equality. However, they were also a source of controversy and resistance, particularly from the authorities and traditionalist elements of society. In this instance, the policeman, known as PC Plod, views the woman's bloomers as unsuitable for a lady and denies her entry to the ladies' public toilet. The image captures the tension and struggle for women's rights during this period, as well as the resistance and opposition they faced from those who clung to outdated gender norms. The suffragette movement, which advocated for women's right to vote and other legal and social rights, was a pivotal moment in the history of women's rights and gender equality. This photograph is a powerful reminder of the courage and determination of the women who fought for change, and the ongoing struggle for gender equality that continues to this day.
