The Sexual Revolution

Changing Family Structures

Changing Family Structures

This is a photo from the 1950s television program Leave It To Beaver. This program typified the traditional 1950s nuclear family structure; by the 1960s, this was changing. With the sexual revolution, many couples were having premarital sex, and many women were seeking careers outside the home.
