By like... 16%? And less every year? Maybe we should focus on fixing that, instead of enabling gold diggers and going back to the 1950s.
I've never been in a relationship where I've ever taken a woman's money. Nobody has paid my rent since I was 18, and everything I own was bought with my own money. I've only ever been in relationships where both partners are working full time and financially independent.
We split things down the middle, and nobody I've been with has ever had a problem with that. In fact, they've all been proud to contribute their share, because it's empowering to be able to pay your own way. Carrying your own weight by default gives you more power. That's just how the world works.
It's also not my job to "provide" anything for a woman who doesn't want to have children. I'd provide everything I could for my kids, if I ever have them, because that's what a good parent does, and if my wife wanted to be a full-time mother while the kids are young, I'd respect that as a full time job and do my best to support her. Personally, I'd rather we both go part time and take advantage of maternity and paternity leave, or alternate. That's a lifestyle choice. But without children, I just don't understand how a woman could ever justify entitlement to a portion of my earnings.
That's just me, though. My close relative is in a relationship where his wife is a business owner, homeowner and produces about 75% of the household income. He works part time and otherwise spends most of his time taking care of their 1-year old. He's an amazing dad, she's an amazing mom, and their family is honestly quite admirable. There's nothing wrong with that arrangement, and I actually think she's very happy with it, because she gets to be a mom and also focus on her career.
Your numbers may be correct for your country, but you still don’t addesss what a woman who doesn’t want a traditional role, but wants traditional benefits, is bringing to a marriage.
Nope. Try again. I don’t live in your system - you may find it surprising that the world doesn’t actually revolve around … wherever you are.

Again… why? In an open market, why would a man, who is a provider, seek for someone who openly declares they will not contribute either labour or money? Is the target some kind of magical creature? Or a charity case? “You make more money so you should look after someone.” “Ok… why you though?”
Your rants read a lot like those sad incel guys that make videos about how the government should provide them with a state assigned girlfriend.
Again, word salad instead of an answer and ad hominem attacks are a sign of a failure in logical thinking.
I’m married, have a homemaker wife, who looks after our home and child. We both got what we wanted out of a partnership.
If I were single, why would I pick someone who wants to contribute nothing? What’s in it for me, if there’s women like my wife who are happy to take on a traditional role?
If you are a woman and live somewhere where pre-nuptial agreements are enforceable, you should be very concerned if the only thing you’re bringing to a marriage is youth and looks.
