Women may be making more, but even if they’re the primarybreadwinners, men still get the credit.

That’s according to a Pew Research Center study that indicates Americans haven’t left thetwentieth century yet.

Despite the growth of women’s financial contributions to Americanhouseholds—in 1980, for instance, 87 percent of men made more thantheir wives, while in 2017 just 69 percent do—it’s still the malemember of the household that most people (even women!) turn to asthe primary breadwinner.

In fact, 71 percent of Americans overall say it’s very importantfor a man to be able to support a family financially to be a goodhusband or partner.

But women’s contributions to the household budgetaren’t regarded as anywhere near important, with just 32 percentsaying it’s very important for a woman to do the same to be a goodwife or partner.

And the scary part? Even women aren’t recognizing the importanceof their own economic contributions, since 71 percent of women sayit’s very important for a man to financially support the family (72percent of men say the same), and only 39 percent of women say it’simportant for women to do so (a paltry 25 percent of men sayso).

Americans rank other traits higher when defining what makes agood spouse or partner, with 86 percent saying a goodhusband/partner should be caring and compassionate, while 90percent say good wives/partners should be; 57 percent saying a goodhusband/partner should contribute to household chores, while 63percent say a good wife/partner should do so; and 38 percent sayinga good husband/partner should be well educated, with 35 percentsaying that a good wife/partner should be.

The study reveals that in approximately two thirds of married orcohabiting couples, men earn more than women.

But because of women’s increasing presence in the workplace andgrowing earnings, married adults are now much more likely to livein upper-income households than nonmarried adults.

Data also reveal that the relative financial contributions ofmen and women differ significantly according to how educated eachis. In 49 percent of couples in which both spouses are at least 25years old and the woman has more education than her male partner,she also earns at least as much as he does.

In 29 percent of couples where both have the same level ofeducation, the woman earns the same as or more than the man. Thatshare falls to 20 percent in couples where the man has moreeducation than his wife or partner.

And demographics matter in determining people’s opinions onwhether a spouse or partner should be able to provide for a family.Lower-income, less-educated adults are more likely to place a highvalue on a spouse or partner’s ability to provide for a family,whether that spouse is a man or a woman.

Eighty-one percent of adults age 25 and older with no educationbeyond high school say that, for a man to be a good husband orpartner, being able to support a family financially is veryimportant.

Among those with some college experience 72 percent say this,and the share is smaller still among those with a four-year collegedegree (62 percent). And 40 percent of high school graduates say awife/partner being able to financially support a family is veryimportant, compared with 29 percent of those with some college and25 percent of those with a bachelor’s degree or higher.

Adults in lower-income families are more likely than those inhigher-income families to say being able to financially support afamily is very important for making a man or woman a good spouse orpartner, with 41 percent of adults with family incomes of less than$30,000 saying this is a very important attribute for a woman tohave, compared with 23 percent of those with incomes of $75,000 ormore.
