The founding of the Bauhaus in 1919 by Walter Gropius fell within the Weimar Republic and thus within the era of women's suffrage. The Bauhaus was one of the first universities to grant women access, so the female influx was disproportionately high. Masters feared a loss of significance for men and pushed women into weaving, which was considered a feminine craft. But women, too, were partly bound to their outdated role models, and so psychological violence came not only from men, alongside the sexism of men.
