The importance of women labor during WWII

Explanation:

The ubiquitous "Rosie the Riveter" WWII poster was a means of symbolizing female factory workers. During the looming war, female labor became more important in and out of the household. Men were away from home, and women looked for jobs to sustain the household. Factory jobs were especially important, because wartime goods were in high demand.
