In General Wheelers own words, "this terrible catastrophe [sinking of the Maine] though not the cause of the outbreak of hostilities, certainly hastened the action of Congress in its declaration of war against Spain." According to Wheeler the Spains actions in Cuba were already leading to war between Spain and the US. The sinking of the Maine was the final straw that decided the congress to vote for war. But war would have come without the sinking of the Maine.

Which statement describes the reality of being a middle-class white woman in the '50s and '60s?
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

A. Many were discontented with their domestic lives and duties and looking for opportunities to develop their talents.

Explanation:

The baby boom and rise of suburban life led to widespread discontent in the lives of middle class white women during the 50s and 60s.

In contrast to the wartime jobs that many women held during WW2, women in the 50s and 60s were stay at home moms.

They spent most of their time at home, and women that did work received much lower pay then men.

Women at home became discontent and wanted equality, with more opportunities for education and work.

So, the correct answer is A.
