This cultural change was largely driven by WWI. By finding a way to also get women to work they could much more efficiently contribute to the war effort. At the same time, expanding recently-industralised capitalism is looking to sell more stuff to more people. Coincidentally that got women involved in new and what were previously exclusively "male" pursuits.
