I have a question: I have learned that it was quite common in labor professions in Germany that the women would receive her husband's wages directly, was in control of the household finances, and would only give her husband some "drinking money" so that he would not spend everything on alcohol. This was true for both in the mining regions in the Harz mountains centuries ago and for Siemens workers in Erlangen in the post-WWII era.

So I would like to know if there have been any studies on this subject (i.e. women receiving the wages of their husbands and being in charge of the household finances):

- How common was this in both Germany and in other countries?
- For which professions, social groups, etc. was this particularly common or uncommon?
- How did this change over time, and what were the triggers for these changes?

taking care of your family, be they children or elderly, healthy or infirm, is #labor. household work like cooking, cleaning, gardening, painting, shopping, healing, mentoring, parenting, decorating, repairs ―all labor.

you have never been paid for all your labor. if you’re a woman, doubly so.

this is why the #feminism of ex-CIA operative and former Henry Kissinger lover, Gloria Steinem, is bullshit.

they never fought for #UBI.

USA’s minimum wage should be $35/hr.

"If I had dropped out of college, thrown away my education, depended on my parents through the pregnancy, birth, and infancy, till I could get some kind of work and gain some kind of independence for myself and the child, if I had done all that, which is what the anti- #abortion people want me to have done, I would have borne a child for them, for the anti-abortion people, the authorities, the theorists, the fundamentalists; I would have borne a child for them, their child.

"But I would not have borne my own first child, or second child, or third child. My children. . . . my children Elisabeth, Caroline, Theodore, my joy, my pride, my loves. If I had not broken the law and aborted that life nobody wanted, they would have been aborted by a cruel, bigoted, and senseless law. They would never have been born. This thought I cannot bear. I beg you to see what it is that we must save, and not to let the bigots and misogynists take it away from us again. Save what we won: our children. You who are young, before it’s too late, save your children."

Hallo Zusammen, ich bin #neuhier
Ich mache #politischeskabarett - mittlerweile muss man dazu sagen: ich mache linkes politisches Kabarett. Das ist im Rahmen der Zeitenwende etwas aus der Mode gekommen, aber wichtiger denn je. Im Jahr 2023 habe ich dafür noch den Deutschen Kleinkunstpreis erhalten - das würde jetzt wohl nicht mehr passieren 😉
