In my experience, in programming it's not 9-5 you want to try to avoid - that's what you want to shoot for. It's 9-9 that you want to try to avoid.

Not just programming. There are many industries that feed on the young and unencumbered. I've seen it in visual effects, architecture, etc.

All of us (mostly) have 8 hours work day in contract. Why should anyone of us work more? There is no such reason. So the problem is in you.
