Yeah pretty much this to be honest, like SPD, Greens and FDP did all the nazi shit like the nazis who are rising now. They did austerity, they 'shut down the border', they helped israel in the whole genocide even go so far as so to say "Israel is justified in its war and killing civilians because Hamas uses civilian shields." and this was Baerbock the foreign minister that said that. They even said "Well the ICC we of course support it but....."
Like the difference between the nazis that go and the nazis that are coming is I guess more corruption since Merz is hilariously corrupt but as far as foreign policy and treatment and migrants go there's very little room to be worse. Like Police raiding church aslyums during the deepest night to grab a few men to send them 'back to syria' that has already happened under SPD. They've already been rounding up immigrants to appease the right. Absolutely no tears lost from me that these nazis are eating shit.
So that's not entirely true like even before women had many rights they already were working for pay in various industries, I could give one very specific example but this is true throughout industries. Waltham (US Watchmaker) really drove down prices of watches by a fixation of 'interchangebility' not just of the mechanical pieces but more importantly immigrant workers and way more importantly women workers. This basically made them 30% more money over a decade so from 1860s to 1870s and that huge gain was seen by other companies who rapidly took that same idea of 'interchangebility' and soon lots of women were working in factories all over the world. They were often kept separate from the other workers and given 'simple' work to obfuscate the fact that women were paid way less than their male counterparts. Early labor movements would often talk about women being forced into factories to help make money for the household.
Assemblé des Travailleurs de Sonvilier, Enquête ouvrière 24.02.1867 "But, they will say to us, what about the worker's wife? Ah, yes, this being to whom nature assigns the care of the household, the early education of the children, and who is often already overburdened with tending to a large family, must still take up tools to help her husband provide bread for their children. Yes, it is a sad necessity! The father of the family can no longer provide the necessary bread for his children unless the wife helps him. And so, how many neglected households and sick children do we see because the mother is forced to devote her time and strength to the workshop."
You are right in that it was the pressure to expand the market base but women certainly were working in factories, just not alongside men because there was often a deliberate separation to keep them as low wage workers.
And again this was happening in factories all over the world, this is just a specific subject I can quote from.
