If only in part because women became workers too, allowing capitalists to strip more as family can live on two incomes.

But at the end of the day, the true enemy is not liberation - but the capital. Nothing stopped us from adopting a 4-hour work day or 3-day work week as women entered the workforce. Nothing but inherent laws of capitalism and desire to squeeze as much work as possible.
