What’s the income like, though? The further back you go, the more women were held back on hours or career advancement, while many traditionally male occupations had more opportunities & security. The World Bank figures that site uses include anyone who is “economically active” so a household in 1980 with a full-time father and a mother working part time at much lower wages still count as a two-income family the same as a dual-lawyer couple in 2020. The more interesting figure for me is the pay disparity halving over that period, which sounds like a lot of women moving from lower skill/hour jobs to better paying ones.
