  And single women, queer women, and women without families are able to survive by working, instead of being in extremely uncertain/abusive situations (or worse).

  So without sarcasm: thanks to feminism, women can experience wage-slaving. Better than being treated as subhumans, even if it's still a crappy life.

  People thought that now, households can be twice as rich because they have double the income.

  Then all the prices increased so it’s as if both partners are paid half as much as they used to :(

  Reminds me of when Bill Gates went to Saudi Arabia and argued for equal rights because it would double their workforce.
