Hi,

Question

My task is to write a essay for the topic 'Women in World War II:An important step in women's liberation or another opportunity for exploitation?'
-What i want to say is women being involved in the war was a step in their liberation because they were able to build a stronger sense of self-worth but i don't know how to support this argument. Could you give me some guidance?

Answer 2

You can list the ways women were able to build a sense of self worth -- jobs that men had, volunteerism to help the war effort, and taking care of their homes, children and bills while the men were at war.

Answer 3

Well Ms.Sue durring the WWII people though that women weren't very important, and the ideal idea of women durring this time was that "The Person who stayed at home and takes care of the kids". But durring the World War Women started to gain independence and had more corage to stand up for themselves. They started getting jobs like ammo refiner, doctor, nurse, and more. With all the mens fighting in the war many women could get jobs in their country.

Extra Facts

Women were consider less important becvause they were thought of having "Too much emotion" that is the same reason happening today, example the Amarican Election. I personally as a guy acctually respect girls, they aren't as bad as you think, it's just sterotypical.

Well hope you do good with your answer Sue
