 it's the demand side doubled, this is principally why the bankers funded suffragettes and getting women the vote and all that... to double their tax cattle base

people would not do this without being pushed and coerced and lured into it though

women are not hunters, engineers, builders or farmers, they are at best teachers, managers, nurses, artists... it's only PR that drives this nonsense about the upwardly mobile yuppie woman business nonsense, and it's completely illogical

it only continues because people can't put together enough money for a house anymore, it's got to the point where a substantial proportion of the population have given up on it altogether, and not only are they not buying houses they arent't getting married or having children, except for the women using it as a way to stay on welfare, and that was already a thing by the 70s
