Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After their selfless efforts during World War II, men could no longer claim superiority over women. Women had enjoyed a taste of financial and personal freedom.

Though the progress was slow over the next two decades At first, women weren’t always welcomed into the workplace. They received less pay and some men looked down on them and felt they weren’t up to handling a “man’s job.” They often faced sexual harassment, long hours, and dangerous working conditions.

After the war, women were still employed as secretaries, waitresses, or in other clerical jobs. Those jobs were not as well paid, and they were not as enjoyable or challenging

Women's roles during world war 2 were as follows:-

streetcar operators

taxi drivers

construction workers

steelworkers

lumber workers

munitions workers

agriculture workers

government workers

office workers

And many other roles
