The surviving men, now older and many with life lasting wound, did come back and with the G.I. Bill got sent to higher education. After that many got work through war contacts. Young men did not exist in the work force. Conscription mean it wasn't a choice between going to work or go to military. Every male when they finished school went to military, and during two world wars most of them died as a result. Were 18-20 year old fresh out of school treated different than a 30 year old that been through conscription and war. I can't say because I didn't lived through that period. What I can say is that people do treat 20 years old fresh out of school with a different level of respect than someone who been in the industry for 10 years. People also treat others different if they been working for 10 years and expecting to continue for an other 10 years, or if they are fresh recruits and only expect them to stay at the job for a handful of years. All of that is however beyond the point of what I wrote above. I said that women were expect to work outside the home at a very specific period on their lives. The only one given exception to this was the aristocrats or millionares who could shield both their sons and daughters.
