This poster struck me as comparable to the emotions of Vera Brittain in "Testament of Youth" because it portrays the woman as a strong, almost masculine figure and calls on her sense of duty or loyalty to her men and her country. It makes it look like the "Victory Girls" are fighting for their country in some way, when in reality they would be performing more domestic or work-force tasks in their home countries or foreign hospitals. I found it interesting how masculine the woman is made to look in comparison to how feminine most of the men in the war posters are portrayed to be. I think advertisers are certainly appealing to different emotions for the sexes. It seems with the men, they're appealing to parents and wives/girlfriends and families to be protective of their "boys", but with the women, they're portrayed as the strong care-taking figure with a strong sense of duty for their country and their "boys". This Victory Girl is portrayed in a more masculine manner than most of the men in the WWI posters I've seen.
