The Changing Roles of Women Chapter 9 Section 4

Debate Over Equality Women’s rights advocates: Women should be allowed to Vote Control their own property & income Have access to higher education Obtain professional jobs Counterargument: Destroys their femininity Upsets the social order

Reality Many worked at home / on farm. Young women, though, increasingly left for cities to work in factories. Others helped establish volunteer organizations. Technological Advances made house work easier. Vacuum cleaners, etc.

Shopping Stores & mail order catalogs. Advertising aimed at women Department stores (Macy’s, etc.) Chain stores (Woolworth, etc.) Farms offered RFD by USPS (Rural Free Delivery)

Outside the Home Many thought working & married life wouldn’t mix. Most female workers were 18-24. Wages were 40-70% of men’s wages. Women didn’t have the mental capacity.

Volunteering Many women volunteered instead. Temperance Girls’ education New libraries & playgrounds Valuable experience was gained. Speaking Writing Finance
