Women and World War One


Women were beginning to become more educated in fields that only men before specialized in. The positions of jobs like mechanics, medical professions and factory workers became available to women. Even this is true; women were paid half the salary as men.
In many countries, women participated in the war but weren’t involved in combat but only jobs like communication, support and supply. Areas that were restricted to women before are now opened and available to them. World War one had a major impact on how the world viewed women. Not only did women gained political freedom and new education, it also enabled them to experience new things, they would have experienced if world war one didn’t came to be.
