During the war, women found themselves doing many jobs that were previously seen as only being suitable for men. They made a vital contribution to the war effort. Many people no longer considered women to be second-class citizens and accepted that they deserved to have equal rights. By the end of the war in 1918, a number of women were given the vote. Many women continued to work after the war, although some did not. Nevertheless, the roles that women took on during the war changed attitudes towards them for good.
