In America, women's rates of employment began to rise after __________.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Women's rates of employment significantly increased after World War II due to the need for women to enter the workforce to replace men who were serving in the military. This led to more economic independence and opportunities for women. Suffrage (A) gave women the right to vote but did not necessarily lead to an increase in employment rates. World War I (B) did result in some increase in employment for women, but not to the same extent as World War II. The 1960s (D) saw the rise of the feminist movement and greater opportunities for women, but this came after the significant increase in employment rates in the post-World War II era.
