My Grandparents got married before my Grandfather left for WWII. They had to hide their marriage because they couldn't afford for my Grandmother to quit teaching. She taught both at the high school and college level. My Grandfather was helping to support his younger sibling and his mother and my Grandmother was helping to support the family farm. Things changed shortly after that for married women and teaching.

Actually around that time almost all women had to stop working the moment they got married no matter their profession. Both my grandmothers stopped working (outside the house/farm) when they got married in the 40s/50s.

"Had to" or "it was socially expected for them to stop dicking around with a silly little hobby job and start keeping house like a real woman"? Also, generally, the lower down the social/wealth ladder you go, the more working women you find, historically.

In my country, "had to". You had to give up your job when you got married. And my grandparents were working class when they got married (my grandmother had been working in a factory). They got married in 1949.
