Men's experiences -
Many worked in mining, shipbuilding and textiles. Others were farmers, shepherds or fishermen. Richer men with a better education might have worked as doctors or in banking. Men from the upper class were often rich as they inherited money from their family and owned land.
Women's experiences -
They served as stenographers, clerks, radio operators, messengers, truck drivers, ordnance workers, mechanics cryptographers and all other non-combat shore duty roles, free thousands of sailors to join the fleet.
