Best Answer

The role of Australian women was the same as it had always been. The married ones were housewives or helpers in their husbands businesses or farms. The single ones worked at clerical jobs or cleaning jobs or nursing. Many women went to college to become nurses or to learn clerical duties so they could rise above the old housewife role. Some became teachers. This was true of the Australian women, The Canadian Women, The American women, New Zealand women (and perhaps South African) and the UK women. Once they learned they could work they started leaning toward going to work. The same thing happened after World War 2.
