During World War II, women were largely excluded from combat roles due to prevailing societal norms and beliefs about gender roles, which viewed men as warriors and women as caregivers. While some countries did allow women to serve in auxiliary or support roles, such as nurses, clerks, and in munitions factories, the dominant military policies prioritized male combatants. Cultural perceptions of women's physical and emotional capabilities further contributed to their limited participation in direct combat. However, many women did take on significant responsibilities and made vital contributions to the war effort in various capacities.
