In the last twenty years, we have become increasingly interested in how
women's roles and lives were changed by the growth of cities and
industrialization. With the Women's Liberation Movement, women
discovered new opportunities and their roles. They have gained confidence
in their abilities and skills.
Years ago, while the "men's sphere" was the larger public world of work
and politics outside the home, "women's sphere" was the private world of
the family and the home. In her home, a woman was supposed to raise and
protect her children, to safeguard the morality and religion of her children
and husband, and sacrifice her life for her the success and happiness of
her husband and children. It was believed that women did not have the
intellectual ability and emotional stability to participate in the larger world of
work and politics.
The women's traditional roles would slowly expand and become more
equal to and like the role of men in society in order to help support her
family and the larger community during World War II. For example, women
worked for the solider camps as a cook, opened up small shops and

laundries, and mended and made clothing. In addition to expanding their
d9mestic skills into small businesses, several women took up writing,
teaching, and running farms. Women also took advantage of the growing
demand for professionals and became doctors, lawyers, and
businesswomen.
