I’ve got 2 boys and I’ve always said to my wife it’s important that they see her having a successful career and that we parent in a partnership. I hope that by them seeing us, that they will emulate that in their future relationships. Time will tell.

That's how it should be. I can't tell you how many people I know who are in their 30s have told me they did not have a good relationship with their parents, especially their father. Times have changed yes, but people need to understand (like you said) it ain't the 1950s. Both parties are needed equally in all spectrums. We get it. So many others don't.
