Women are still discouraged from participating in the job market, and still make less money than men for doing the same jobs, so I don't see how doing conventionally female crafts at home for very little money is a form of empowerment. It hurts to acknowledge that level of systemic oppression though, and seems to feel good to a lot of women to say that it's a voluntary dynamic.
