00:08

not a euphemism Baby goes the bathroom We're not talking

00:12

about that All right Taking the following passage women in

00:14

world war two i mean w w w two depression

00:21

Atlantic pacific manpower commission agents All right which of the

00:26

effects of women working during world war two is not

00:30

supported by the selection and hear the potential answers or

00:33

passage gives us all we need A quick review of

can eliminate option a We hear all about how female

00:46

workers helped factories to pump out products needed for the

00:49

war effort This one's totally supported by the selection So

it's the only choice that's not supported by the selection

01:26

nowhere does the selection claim that fewer women got married

01:30

and had kids time directly after world war two is

called The baby boom if that tells you anything Luckily

01:35

it was time of huge growth and families and not
