Best Answer

Most men were sent to war whether they liked it or not. They served in the armed forces at sea, on land or in the air. Those who didn't go were wanted to do the jobs the soldiers did before they left.

Women did most of the work after the men left. They were encuraged to join the workforce as substitutes. In addition, women took more care of children and helped whenever, whoever and however they could.

Hopes this helps!
