If women are not expected to be equal partners in their own marriages, why should they be equal in society? They cannot be expected to handly complex things like balancing a checkbook, their husbands always did that for them. You think I'm going to pay a housewife who lets her husband handle the finances as much of a salary as I do the husband? Not on your planet, I'm not.
