It is strange to watch this knowing that the cars that rolled off the assembly lines in 1940 would be some of the last civilian cars produced in the United States--or anywhere, really--until 1946. Other than that line about a "blitzmeal" at around 2:08, you would never know that there was a world war on at the time or at the US would be in it in less than two years--or that Chevrolet would be making tanks and planes, not cars.

This is how men were able to quit "oppressing" women. Seriously, during times of struggle, men and women naturally fell into the jobs they could do best. It wasn't like the woman says to the man, "Look, I've been cleaning the house long enough. Let me have a swing of that ax to clear that patch of land and you go wash dishes." What really happened, as far of division of labor and who was head of the family, wasn't oppression. It was the necessity of survival.

Except men and women were told which jobs they should do based on gender roles and cultural norms. If women had the same education and upbringing as men I doubt as many would have stayed home with the kids. Sure, men were better suited to working in the coal mines, steel mill etc. because of their strength but there were still plenty of white-collar jobs that could've just as easily been filled by a woman.

@@RandomNumber141 Obviously, men and women can work in whatever roles they want and be equally as competent. But I do think there is a general biological inclination for women to be more domestic. Especially in the past where people had a lot more kids (out of necessity, because of higher mortality rates) a mother would have to spend a lot more time with the children for essential tasks such as breast-feeding which are gender specific. This is probably how this divergence in roles started, but there was definitely a societal/cultural element of sexism as well.

I had a '40 Chevy. That vacuum shift was nice, unless you had to change gears without the motor running when it was -40 degrees (like for a pull-start when the battery was dead). Then you needed just about all your strength to move all that mechanism. lol But with the motor running, yes, you could shift gears with your little finger.

Also, defining women as "the weaker sex" just because they're not as strong as men is insulting, you really don't need much of a brain to realize why. No-one called men "The criminal sex" or "the violent sex" because they weren't trying to define men in negative terms or according to things they worse at. It's truly amazing what idiotic shit deluded misogynists can think of to pretend that insulting women was and is a-ok.

Women of that era were by no means free, nor did they consider anything they received as a result of their husband's work his "gift" to them. Women who did not work outside the home -- and some who did -- lived entirely at the financial sufferance of their men, and had virtually no legal claim to a living share of his wages. Tradition alone dictated what she was entitled to. No woman could get credit in her own name until the early 1970s (!) -- a husband or other relative had to co-sign. In large areas of the country -- especially the deeply conservative South and the farming Midwest -- women's physical freedom to move about, visit distant places, or re-locate was quite constrained, causing them to forfeit many opportunities that men enjoyed. Divorce for any cause was considered a scandal by society, and was rare until the late 1960s. In-marriage physical and sexual abuse by a man were generally not recognized, and women's official complaints along these lines were ignored -- frequently until after she had been killed. There's "women's freedom" for you. And that's just for white women, the most privileged of all.

Okay the only thing I didn't know already is how a sewing machine works. Mainly because I only know how to sew by hand. Before my mum got hurt she liked manual transmission. It wasn't pleasant when she tried to teach my older sister. I wish a family friend would switch to an automatic transmission. Every shift is jerky, loud and uncomfortable. Maybe it's because it's an old car, but it feels like he's destroying the transmission. I hate having to ride in it.

Seems like a cool invention, but the shift lever was not the most onerous factor in manual shifting, at least not once synchromesh transmissions were common; it was the clutch. I think most people would rather have a manual shift lever and an automatic clutch than the other way around.

Women never forgot the independence of running and financing their lives and instilled this sense of independence in their Boomer daughters. Thus the Women's liberation movement was born.

For some reason this made me laugh alot. Thanks buddy I needed that. Now, where is my wife right now??

I love this, things like this just couldnt exist today.

This is refreshingly not-patronizing, especially for 1940, but the woman doing housework in heels cracks me up. According to my mom (who grew up in the 50s and 60s), women saved their heels for going out (so they wouldn't wear out as fast), and mostly wore cheaper soft flats around the house.

Hurry-Up picture... I'll use this from now on.

I can't stop laughing at these comments below...

Not true. I learned to drive on a 1940 chevvy with "vacumatic gear shift" and without the vacuum assist it just took a little more effort.

I do love women and yes they are amazing but when do the get to the cars? ;-;

Nice vid - but a little curious as to why the speedometer never changes, when the car is "apparently" being driven!

TheEgg185 I think your comment encapsulates exactly the thinking behind the slogan ‘Make America Great Again’, but there’s not going back. The 60’s changed everything and then Reagan really screwed us over.

I'd go at the drop of a hat. Looking at old videos of different countries, it's clear that every single place was much more superior in the past.

now that so called weaker sex can put you in a jail just by saying that you attacked her 20 years ago.

On the flip side, women can take real action against actual sexual assault. So while false reports probably went up, real reports probably went up even more...

The crazy thing is the "little women" featured in this video are likely far physically stronger than the majority of today's Men.

Soy boy, lefty men, you mean.

Did vacuum shifts also have automatic (or power assisted) clutches? If not, then there doesn't seem much to be gained by making the gearshift 80% lighter.

yes you could still shift when the vacuum was not working....we had a 41 Chevrolet with it and you could still move the shift lever when it was not running

Knowledge with little humour ......😍😍

This chevy video managed to make women more equally than women rights video nowadays

Well explained

I wish i could go back into time.

It's interesting how consumer tastes change back and fourth. In the late 30's and early 40's moving the gear shift lever from the floor to the steering column was considered modern progress, but in the 60's and 70's we looked down on the "old fashion" column shift. We would pay extra for "four on the floor", rather than settle for "three on the tree".
