During the 1930's, the New Deal did not help nor hurt women.
What Women Gained Through the New Deal:
A bill was organized by Frances Perkins that was designed for women called the "Social Security Act of 1935" which essentially acted as an "Aid to Dependent Children" program. This was beneficial to women because they gained a state-level mother's pensions.
New Deal Limitations:
Women's rights were very limited because of the fact that the women had very limited views as to what they should aim for. In the 1900s, women supported their husbands as they should but they also grew very dependent and tended to follow their husband's opinions regardless if they were the right decision or not. So women fought for their equality but received only symbolic gains during the New Deal.
