During the Civil War, Southern women:
A. Were forced to do work they had never done before.
With many men leaving to fight in the war, Southern women were indeed forced to take on new responsibilities and roles that were traditionally assigned to men. They often managed farms and plantations, took care of families and had to adapt to running households and businesses without the presence of men. This shift in roles was a significant aspect of life for many Southern women during the war.
