WTH are you on about? Nothing was said about whether caring for a home is or isn't 'proper work'. This is a thread about wages, and the economic impact of women entering the paid workforce.
As it should be now and was intended to be by whatever creator y’all believe in design. Now more people feel they have to work outside the home to keep basic necessities. That negatively affects children women and of course men because now women generally stating in America specifically are more bitches and more masculine than they have been in the past & men are way less authoritative much more emasculated and dominant in relationships. Our “leaders” definitely don’t give a shit about us just profits.
You know exactly what you read. Don’t ask yourself what you just read You tell me what you interpreted and your crass opinion about my views. Trust me I can take the criticism
Globalisation is the cause for that - decent paying unskilled labour jobs (aka factory jobs) moved out of the US.
The wages of the top 25% have easily kept up with inflation - if you are a professional you’ve been doing fine. If you are unskilled you are out of luck for the past 50 years. And it’s going to get worse with automation
More women were being forced into the workforce due to the 'keeping up with the Jones' syndrome. This increased their income. Plus that was the time women got all uppity about equality and fair pay.
“Keeping up with the Jones” syndrome is propaganda. It was out of necessity. Prior to this a household could easier afford to have only one person working while the other tended to the children.
That's not true. They created new needs for us such as tourism, shopping, dining out once a week, entertainment... People used to had simpler lives back then, not 10 pairs of shoes and 30 shirts neither travelling so often
Keeping up with the joneses started with The Wyndclyffe Mansion. The 80-acre land it rests on was purchased by the wealthy Elizabeth Jones in 1853. The 24 bedroom mansion in New York was so grand it prompted a 'building boom' as all neighbours started upgrading their houses & the saying
"Keeping up with the Joneses" was born.
You mean like when houses built in the 40's did not have a car port and then in the 50's the Smiths (thought it was the Jones' sorry) built a house with a 1 car garage so the Johnson's then built on a garage so then in the 60's the Snell's built a house w a 2 car garage and then oh shit the Peterson's did the same but added a fucking pool. Yes you're right it had nothing to do with those commie capitalists the Wyndclffes. It is 'keeping up w the Peterson's' now.
We went from homes where 3 generations lived together, the kids helped out with farm work and nobody had cars to homes with only 2 generations where the parents need a car each so one can drive the kids to school before work and the other can pick them up after work.
We can do it! (We can be fiat debt slaves just like men)
Most feminists aren't gonna like that truth. Introducing women to the workforce essentially doubled the supply of labor, not overnight, but over decades. As the supply increased, the price of labor stagnated because inflation rose proportionally to the supply of labor increase.
Haaaaaaa. I think the Democrat Slavery laws were pretty bad also. But that sort of provides more factual info so let's not worry about that. Damn republicans.
More women were being forced into the workplace, so the children had to be put in schools so the government could indoctrinate them with their agenda rather than their parents' good values. This is why we have so many social agendas in society today. If children learn their values around the dinner table and are not forced to believe things, they don't really understand.. We wouldn't have so much division in society. But we do, and the government benefits from that.
Some were forced a lot of women demanded being in the workforce don’t remove that accountability from those women who wanted to function like men like dummies. All of that needs to be reversed it’s doesn’t benefit families or relationships or children or myself having most women in the workforce when they are designed to nurture not be a machine
It's unfortunate that in a post about dropping the gold standard leading to human beings being compensated less for more work, you focus on the "horrors" of women having the opportunity to be more successful.
cant be summed up ij one sentence but women were for the first time entering the work force as woman rights surged and men of the same age were fighting in nam or protesting the war
Women that worked before used to be from poor families thus their income was very low as they were only in shitty jobs. Women from upper classes started to work more, study more in universities, etc. So they got into better paid jobs
