This sounds more like women perpetuating toxic masculinity rather than toxic femininity. The idea that a man should be shamed for making less than his wife is a patriarchal idea. Still wrong to do of course.

That's the problem we run into when we only look at things through a single paradigm. Who does this outlook unfairly punish? The man who isn't allowed to make less money than his wife. Who does it unfairly benefit? The wife who can either expect her husband to provide the lion's share of the resources or who can lord her wealth over her husband if he fails to live up to her expectations.
