assistant
The expectations for men and women in the 1920s differed significantly. Men were expected to be the primary breadwinners and were encouraged to pursue professions such as law, medicine, engineering, and science, while women were primarily expected to stay at home to fulfill domestic duties, like cooking, cleaning, and caring for children. Education for women was also discouraged in favor of traditional gender roles.
