Result of Nazi Policies towards women

• Nazi policies meant fewer women went to University, the birth rate increased and unemployment amongst men fell
• However, not all women were convinced, while the Reich women’s leader, Gertrude Scholtz-Klink was disliked for her rigid and old fashioned ideas
• Some Nazi policies were reversed as rearmament and the build up to war led to women returning to work.
• In 1937 women with marriage loans were allowed to work again, so by 1939, 7 million women were in work, compared to 5 million in 1933
