What was

women's life and

work like before

WWII?

The answer to this question depends to the country we are discussing about, but in general women were mostly focused on house works and their role in society was not so important, but still there were some improvements that were consequences of the suffragette movement.

Explanation:

Large changes happened at the end of 19th and beginning of 20th Century, when in certain countries gained possibility to vote. During WW1 women started working more in industry, because most of men were in war. Because of that in the interwar period women were represented more both in publice and public life.
