Women were perceived as mothers, homemakers. secretaries, hard workers, but unfortunately not necessarily equal to men. The women disproved this to the men of the United States, in Britain and other countries where women built everything needed for the war front. The older men however did realize women could step up to the plate to do a hard works day at what had been traditionally called "man's work" because they remembered what the women and their mothers did to create all the bombs and tanks for WW1.

Now for a joke to your question. I could not resist having answered this question many times. How were women seen before WW2. With your eyes. Ha ha.
