They are probably thinking more long term and are thinking about how things would work out having a child. We can talk about gender equality, but it's only women that get pregnant and give birth. If the female has to be a breadwinner for the family, how will that work with having a child? It's better for children to have a stable home and optimally, it's best to stay at home with them at least the first year. So regardless of gender equality, it's still better for a family to have a man that will be a good provider.
