If a man is married to a woman who makes more money than he does and they're happy about it, then that's no skin off any one's back. Back when I was married, I even told my wife that if she made more money than I, then I would welcome the situation.
The justification that human male was made to be the breadwinner made more sense in a hunter/gatherer society or an agricultural society than it does in our technological society, where physical strength is less of a factor in one's ability to do the heaviest labor. Reading the Bible (or the Talmud or -- gasp! -- the Koran or any number of Hindu or Buddhist or Taosit texts), one gets the idea that God tried to convey eternal truths to we mortals trapped in a space-time continuum in a way we mortals might understand it, given the individual mortals' place and time. When one tries to render eternal truth int temporal language. something get lost in the translation. Thus, the specific references to social norms in sacred texts such as the Bible seems to have little to do with our own day-to-day lives centuries after it was written.
I stopped believing in the Christian God a long time ago, when in my early teens I realized that there was something discordant about the teachings of Christianity, which claims that God saves only Christians or even only followers a specific sect of Christianity, and what my parents taught me, that it was wrong to reject another person for going to a different church. It occurred to me that perhaps the Christian God was no more capable of universal love than we poor sinners that he created in his own image. This may be an indication that Mr. Fischer's God is something created by Mr. Fischer in his own image, and it's not a pretty one.
