Because they were poor? :/
Life for poor women in 1912 was very difficult. They only served the purpose of providing cheap labor to the well-off families.
Life for the poor in 1912 was very tough to go through. They didn't have much money, not enough food and were often treated like they were dirt. They always were on the last of the popularity line and were staged as "third class".
It was hard for poor people because they didnt have the proper care that the wealthy people needed.
In 1912 life was very hard for many people economically people were poor and everyone had less food and resources , businesses went bad and life was hard Also for women they had to work in factories also cocaine/coke was legal. The titanic also sank which was a very tragic and bad event.
