Interesting and informative. But let me tell you and others that man and woman working to run a home is an artificially created situation in the western countries. I will call it a vicious circle. Let me explain what I mean. When more people work then more money is generated and when more money is in circulation with the same amount of commodities then prices for each go up. So cost of living becomes more and so both partners must work to run the home. Women are working only in the service sector and not in manufacturing or industry and so goods produced are same but the money generated is far high and so cost of living is high. This artificially created vicious circle is worse than what you see in more conservative society.

In countries like India and Pakistan, only husband work, the goods created are same and money generated is also not high so money in circulation is not high enough to jack up the prices . And so just one man works and runs the home. It’s a much happier situation then both partners working and then clashing with their egos and eventually creating an unstable family.

The high performance comes with high cost of living. The low performance with low cost of living. What is required is a balance between both. I am not in favour of either extremes. I will prefer a social model which doesn’t jeopordise family at the cost of performance.

So the reason for increased prices is because women are now working. Let me explain something to you. Your prices will increase when you have inflation as well, and inflation can be attributed to many many causes. I’ve never heard of it being attributed to working women.

As sectors expand, a country will need more workers to work. Simple. So women enter the work force. You have more people ready to work and do creative things, you have, in turn, an expanding economy. I don’t call that a vicious cycle. I call it a good circle.

Rise in prices is due to women working. Haha, I’ve never heard of such a misogynist modern theory in my life. Oh well, it is the internet.
