Although "women's affairs" included such things as concern for community life and helping destitute women (issues still of interest to the women's movement), in those days women were still fundamentally placed in the position of compassionately bearing the weight of others 'troubles, and were told to take pride in the role of "supporting the men at the front and being a stabilizing force for society."
然而那時候，沒有「婦女運動」，只有「婦女工作」，雖然關懷社區生活、救援困苦婦女，也是婦女工作的一環，但基本上，婦女被認定應該任勞任怨，以身為「男人作戰的後援、社會安定的力量」為榮。
