The North’s population totaled to a rounded estimation of 22 million people, while the South only had the quivering 9 million.

A woman had to be well dressed and have a solid native born American family, this was the ideal women.

Do you agree with the view that, in terms of employment opportunities, women did not gain ‘any significant advantage from their wartime experience’? Many women, especially shorthand typists and munitions workers, earned for more than before the war and gained greater economic independence. Many women worked away from home were they experienced a sense of liberation from their restricted home lives. Trade unions initially opposed the dilution of labour but eventually recruited many more women. 350,000 women were in unions in 1914, but 600,000 by 1918.

This suburb failed, however it created a standard for women in America that still prevails today. It also erased almost all the advances women made in the workforce during the war.

Sabrina Ford 09/27/2011 IGED 111 Foundations of writing 2 State of the Black Hair Care Industry The average black woman considers her hair a priority.
