Vox Day on the revolutionary impact of the entrance of millions of women into the workforce

Vox Day notes the revolution in our workforce in the 60's and 70's:

I always find it remarkable, and perhaps even a little depressing, how few people are able to grasp that the primary consequence of the addition of 70 million working women, all of whom were already consumers, to the labor force, could never have been anything else but to lower wages.

One can debate whether female workers are more or less productive than male workers, and one can certainly debate whether the societal effects were beneficial or negative, but the one thing that cannot be denied, on logical, theoretical, historical, or empirical grounds, is that the post-1950 doubling of the female labor force has had a severely depressing effect on American wages.

Of course there are very good and very bad aspects to this massive increase in employment of women that took place in the latter half of the 20th century in America.

On the good side, it brought the considerable talents and perspectives of women to bear on our work life, it provided employment of millions of women who needed it, it inspired young girls to aspire to better education, accomplishments, etc.

On the bad side, it obviously depressed wages, it made many families dependent on two-wage earner arrangements, and, perhaps most perniciously, it made increasingly extraneous the labor of the most marginalized segment of the workforce, which was mostly black men.

I suspect that the large-scale unemployment and family abandonment by black men over the past half-century is due in large part to massive increases in welfare (making the poor/black husband/father economically superfluous) and to massive increases in women in the workforce (making the poor/black husband/father economically untenable).

Don't expect to encounter this simple observation anywhere in academia or in the media for the next thousand years.
