    "Key point about females often neglected by the bear arguments on this forum:

    "Banks were restricted to lending up to 80 per cent of a property's valuation and the female partner's income was not considered when calculating a borrower's repayment capacity.""

    The females income was ignored when considering how much money could be borrowed but BOTH incomes could be used to make the repayments....just like it is today.
