Introduction
Why was the NSDAP appealing to women in 1920's
Abolish the "unfair punishment" of the Treaty of Versailles was popular with many Germans
The promise to re-militarise Germany would bring in huge industrial contracts – bringing support from many industrialists
Propaganda poster “German women, think of your children – Vote Hitler”
The SA appeared to be a strong organisation which could protect Germany from its enemies
Better pensions and increased employment
Women remained under-represented in the parliament
Abortion was still prosecutable
Female workers did not achieve substantial economic progress
Generally paid 10 to 20% less than male employees
Motherhood still promoted as women's most important social function
A few quotes by Hitler about women
in reality, the granting of so-called equal rights to women, as demanded by Marxism, does not confer equal rights at all, but constitutes the deprivation of rights, since they draw women into a zone where they can only be inferior. It places women in situations where they cannot strengthen their position with regard to men and with society – but it only weakens them.
Hitler’s Speech to the National Socialist Women’s League (September 8, 1934)
The sacrifices which the man makes in the struggle of his nation, the woman makes in the preservation of that nation in individual cases. What the man gives in courage on the battlefield, the woman gives in eternal self-sacrifice, in eternal pain and suffering. Every child that a woman brings into the world is a battle, a battle waged for the existence of her people
We do not consider it correct for the woman to interfere in the world of the man, in his main sphere. We consider it natural if these two worlds remain distinct.
