You two are too much. I can dig up all kinds of token working women from my family too - so what. The point is the top professions were NOT available to women, period. The medical schools didnt accept women except the occasional token entrant. Women could not get scholarships of any kind. Women couldnt get car dealerships, McDonalds franchises, anything. Now, that never meant that there werent women working in these locales. If you were a 26 yr old single woman and you wanted a car dealership, you could get one under your fathers name. You COULD NOT get one on your own. Beyond that, for the professional positions, there was the issue of pay. Women made less than men for the same work, and pink collar jobs were grossly underpaid even more so than now. What your 94 year old granny did on the farm is immaterial.
