    By the 80s, for me, it became 2 times 1, 1 times the other but not sex dependent, higher income dependent.   Luckily I never had to get my dad to cosign for me lol.  But I did see forms in women's personnel files, dated the 60s where they had to sign, on the occasion of their marriage, saying they would continue to give good and effective service.  Presumably they didn't want girls worrying about their husbands tea when they should have been giving their attention to work lol.  (So that would be the women's files some 20 years later as I was in personnel the mid 80s clearing out stuff)
