Women’s Financial Exclusion Never Left

I just told my husb that women couldn't even get a credit card w/o a male signature until 1974, and he was incredulous. I think a lot of people don't realize that the deep misogyny of this country is so close that it's not even in the rear view mirror. It's here. It never left. Household debt to disposable income

A screenshot of a tweet about women needing a male signature to obtain a credit card until 1974, followed by a graph showing household debt relative to disposable income. The joke is that the graph’s sharp rise is presented as a visual reply to the claim that misogyny is not in the past but still present in modern society.
