The cage did not appear to be that comfy even.

Though situations were better in terms of wages. Once women entered the workforce they cut wages to account for that. Turns out they weren't paying an individual what they could get away with, they were paying a household what they could get away with.

That's not on women, though.

Not quite. They didn't cut wages, they just didn't raise them as fast, and it wasn't a conspiracy, but just the result of vastly more people entering the workforce. If you have more people competing for the same amount of jobs, you can get away with paying them less.
