By the end of the 19th century, the home is not the all-consuming place it once was. Families are getting smaller, and growing numbers of middle-class women are identifying with activities outside the home such as women's clubs and social reform. Some are so concerned about prostitution and its control that they attempt to close down dance halls, or hide behind bushes in hopes of catching young women in the act of kissing or some other "unseemly" behavior. The element of social control is at the base of many reform movements.
