问题     Before World War II, the labor force in the United States was made up of almost entirely men. Those women who did have jobs were, as a rule, single and usually worked in schools, businesses or small factories, particularly in the garment industry. It was only the exceptional married women who worked. Those who did work generally owned their businesses, such as a dress shop or a restaurant. They also may have helped their husbands in their businesses.
    Since World War II, the entrance of both married and single women in the working world has continued to increase. Today, not only are there more single women available for the labor market, but there are also large numbers of married women, many of whom have children.
    One of the primary reasons why there’s a noticeable increase in the number of employed women is that more women, both single and married, have become aware of the need for personal self-fulfillment. Of course, other factors have also contributed to the increase in the number of working women. Some of these include a change in the education among many women, who are entering very specialized fields such as medicine, law and computer science. Modern appliances have also reduced the amount of housework and a demand for expensive goods has increased the necessity for a "second outcome". 1
