However thanks to feminism women can now also experience the joys of being a wage-slave! Congratulations!

punchline - now nobody can afford the rent on their own, so it’s all shit.

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 :(

And trying to get by on a single income was fucking miserable in my 20s because of it.

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

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.

Yeah, women get to be a wage-slave instead of a wage-slave-slave!

Wage slave better than actual slave
