The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can say the following.
The beliefs about women's roles were different from the reality of women's presence in the workforce in the 1950s and 1960s in that in those years, women had different roles and society limited the participation of women in the workplace, even less in the corporate world.
This means that in the 1950s and 1960s, women had limited options about their roles in society. Fortunately, these days, women have the opportunity to access many jobs in the corporate world. Nowadays, women feel that they have the choice between pursuing a career and staying at home to raise their families.
