Did the opportunities that America's first factories provided for young women outweigh the hardships they experienced there?

The answer is yes, because otherwise, they would not have absorbed so much female labor force. Women would have refused to work there.

Explanation:

Although it is undeniable that in America's first factories working conditions were very hard, since there were very few, if any, worker's protections and rights, these factories had an important pull factor and that was simply the fact that they paid higher wages than those paid in rural occupations or in household work, this last one being essentially unpaid work carried out mostly by women.
