Question

1. Why were American women pressured to leave their jobs after the war?

Answer 1

Answer:

Their work was seen as an unusual wartime necessity, and now that the war was over, they had to go back to "normal" and stay at home.

Explanation:

The pressure on women to leave the factory was strong. Some business owners simply laid women workers off, saying that since the war was over they were not needed—but then they gave those women’s jobs to men. Some businesses revived their old policies of not hiring married women.
