In a marriage, a women need contribute nothing to the support of her family or her own welfare (monetarily), but in fact, may work to gain income for her own sole account. Unfortunately, the references I don't have, but if this is debatable, please let me know. So the assertion that the conditions on a woman working are as you described doesn't seem correct.
