Women During World War I

Women during World War I had their lives affected tremendously. When WWI became a total war, women were now needed to work and governments turned to them while their men were off fighting in war. Women replaced men in all fields such as in factories, offices, and shops. Women also aided the troops. They supplied the men with food, clothing, and weapons. Women also built tanks, plowed fields, paved streets, and ran hospitals. When the war was over, women almost went obsolete in the areas in which they covered the men for during the war. But as a result, opinion changed on what the capability of what a woman could do.
