Loading ...No doubt that the gov wanted women working which could disrupt the family’s for taxes. At the same time most the jobs women took up were woman dominated type jobs anyways. Jobs most men didn’t do then although they are now except certain retail or reception jobs. From the 80 s on you began to see more male nurses although there is still some privacy issues as do you want a male nurse undressing your mother, wife or daughter? If your Muslim even worse that’s a absolute no and have to take that in immediate consideration the minute they walk in the door. In some ways it helped expand things like retail as most guys hate anything that is repetition or doing the same thing over and over again. Guess that’s why you don’t see too many guys crocheting. They can’t handle that kind of pain. At the same time if you think about it as far as industrial it took wages because they began to outsource their companies. Now if it happened during a time of male work domination there would of been hell to pay. Your taking our jobs to feed our family’s where the outrage? As other things started to expand and men started infiltrating into other fields it helped absorbed part of the shock but not enough. Also in LA I noticed that many of these industrial jobs and construction were being taken over by Mexicans until that’s all you saw working there. Remember that movie by Cheech and Chong where industrial got raided and he hid in a stuffed animal rounding up illegals? That’s what was happening then. That also thanks to not securing borders helped keep wages down but at the same time inflation by reality not their numbers that don’t reflect total cost of living , wages did not keep up with cost of living, however I remember starting out making minimum wage and it is untrue you couldn’t afford all that was said on minimum wage, you could not afford a car payment plus everything else on minimum wage but perhaps that depended on where you lived. You couldn’t afford a house either even if you made a little more than that you had to make a lot more than that. When women were working it did not interfere in men’s wages as their jobs were different for the most part. The wage difference was much wider. Women joked their job helped pay their husbands taxes. It did not appear to make a difference until mass immigration and outsourcing. However what they did do is raise the price of everything then pulled the rug under the men’s jobs making things worse because now wages lost or lowered and costs up. PS back in the 80s there was a time you couldn’t give your house away, similar to what happened in 08 as jobs dissapearing. There were people who never recovered from that either.
