There was an error in my post on technological unemployment last night. It confused % manufacturing jobs with # manufacturing jobs. Correcting this makes it less clear there has not been gradual manufacturing decline since 1960 correlating with PAMFLPR decline. See post for more.

1/2 Isn't the huge increase in women's participation the most obvious explanation for the 1970-2004 decrease in men's?

2/2 Why not say, "Since 1970, women have (partially) replaced men in the workforce, leading to a slight increase in overall participation. Separately, there has been a slight decrease in overall participation since 2004."

Very few men are homemakers, so not through women subsidizing men. In terms of women taking men's jobs, this should be same principle as immigrants taking natives' jobs, which generally doesn't happen. Also, job loss worst in manufacturing, with few women.
