Survey Says...

What type of life do you think is best for women in general?
Homemaking & Family Raising
Boys 63% -- Girls 46%

Career
Boys 3% -- Girls 7%

Combination of Homemaking & Career
Boys 20% -- Girls 36%

Undecided
Boys 14% -- Girls 11%

This is from The Purdue Opinion Poll for Young People, 1948. The results are published in the Personal Adjustment Marriage and Family Living textbook I discussed briefly yesterday. From what I read in the text, the young people surveyed were high school age.

I wonder what the results would be today?
