How did World War I affect the social, political, and economic status of women? (for dbq thesis)

The women gained more rights, freedom, and become economically more independent.

Explanation:

The World War I first, and later the World War II as well, actually had lot of positive effects on the women on the long run. Because millions of men were deployed in the military and in the fronts across the world, there was major lack of labor force. The governments then started to encourage the women to work, as well as starting to promote their rights and improve their social status.

The women understandably took the opportunity. They suddenly had jobs, instead of being discouraged to educate they were actually encouraged to do so, they earned money, and were given all rights as the men. Because of this the women quickly became equal to men in the society. They were able to support themselves financially so they became much more independent economically. Because they were gaining skills and experience and education on top of it, the women were now able to progress on the job place and to pursue a career.
