That’s utter nonsense
It’s really not.
Pre-WWII, women were in the home almost exclusively. When women had to take over jobs as men went off to war and then men returned, they figured out they could raise prices with more than one income to a household.
Add to it supply shortages and high demand in post-war, it was a perfect storm. The two parent working household began to escalate from there.

It’s nonsense. Mothers in the homes was the norm until the 1970s. It has little do with corporate strategy and everything to do with moving away from the gold standard and the stagflation of the 1970s.
