Hello, So I am assuming this is a multiple choice question.. Your answer would be
Make less money than there male counter parts, , women were most expected to make less money then men...
Reason being... is that they were looked down upon and many men thought it was shameful that a women made a higher income or got a higher wage than a man. Reason why the rest of the choices are wrong...
When some women got pregnant , they could not stay home (some of them depending on the boss) because they needed the money to support there families. Women never made made more money then men back in the day,it was shameful to the man and the man felt like a failure , so women would get paid less. Also, not all of the women back in the day (soaring 20's) got hired for a job because of gender discrimination, not to mention that they had kids and families they had to look after, so it was impossible for a lady in the time to work for longer hours.
The correct answer is B) to make less money than their male counterparts and C) to be forced to stay at home if they became pregnant.
Explanation:
<em>Women working outside the home during the roaring 1920s could expect to make less money than their male counterparts and to be forced to stay at home if they became pregnant</em>. The roaring 1920s were a time of changes and prosperity for American citizens. In the particular case of women, there were many changes for them in this decade that included working habits, cultural changes, and more independence in some aspects. Many women had to get a job outside the home to help the family. Unfortunately for them, women made less money than their male counterparts. They also were forced to stay at home if they became pregnant because the owners thought that a pregnant woman in the workplace was detrimental to job productivity and women were fired.
