Bloomer Girls

Famous quotes containing the words bloomer and/or girls:

“I feel no more like a man now than I did in long skirts, unless it be that enjoying more freedom and cutting off the fetters is to be like a man. I suppose in that respect we are more mannish, for we know that in dress, as in all things else, we have been and are slaves, while man in dress and all things else is free.”
—Amelia Bloomer (1818–1894)

“When you see what some girls marry, you realize how they must hate to work for a living.”
