I AM researching a dissertation for my history degree on whether the Second World War allowed women to enjoy a more liberating lifestyle.
I would be grateful if women working as Land Girls, in factories or in the armed forces would allow me to interview them to ascertain whether they felt the war made them equal to men in terms of pay, leisure and lifestyle etc. Also, whether they felt that this liberation (if any) continued after the war.
