1. Why were American women pressured to leave their jobs after the war? Once the war was over, war production ended, and the women who specialized in that type of work were no longer needed.
Their work was seen as an unusual wartime necessity, and now that the war was over, they had to go back to "normal" and stay at home.
O Women did not need to work, as they were usually supported by their husbands, and so they had no reason to keep jobs away from men.

Explanation:

after the civil war, and with the termination of slavery, the south was faced with a big problem; what was supposed to happen and how they were supposed to deal with the freedom and the rights that black people and freed slaves had gained as a result of the north defeating the south and forcing the end of slavery. first, most, if not all, of the workforce of the south came from slaves and they did not have an option to replace the loss of said workforce. second, particularly in the south, people were convinced that black people were lesser, less intelligent, less capable and less smart than whites. this posed a huge problem for them. also, southerners were faced with another issue; freed slaves now had a say in how their lives would be lived and the right to politically choose the way they would be governed. people in the south did not want to accept this, none of this and this opposition and the conflicts that arose from it, not to mention the afereffects of the war, forced the congress of the time to enact and enforce the reconstruction plans that had been proposed by president andrew johnson.
