Do you aree that in a relationship, the male party should be the dominant one?

In a place where I grew up it should be the man's responsibility to make decisions for the family and to provide financial support. However, in our generation today, there are already a lot of females (mothers and wife) working to help provide financial support in the family. It is the reason I am wondering why some of my male friends still think that male should be dominant over female in terms of decision making. I knew a lot of relationships that have failed because the male partner wants to control the life of his female partner by telling her that this is what she should and should not wear, she can't go out with this person, she should no longer see her guy best friend because it does not seem right that she already have a boyfriend/ husband and she still has a very close guy friend. If you are going to ask a lot of people today if they think nowadays male and female are equal in all means they might say yes. Usually they would answer that because nowadays women are already working for their family. There are women who are also aggressive enough to court the guy thy like. Females can now wear pants. Females are now driving cars, etc. However, when you are going to look or study closely the man and woman relationship we will still see gaps. Usually, whenever both the husband and wife works for the family it is still the female who is mainly responsible to take care of the children and do the housekeeping if there is no nanny or housekeeper in the house. It seems like there is this unwritten rule between husband and wife that, "Okay wife, I'll allow you to have a work but make sure you will still be able to do your job inside the house: take care of the house, the baby and me." This is one of the reasons why my husband and I usually fight. We are both working in the same company. I am a Supervisor and he is a Trainer in our company. We go to work and go home together. We have a nanny and housekeeper but still he expects me to be the ever dutiful wife. He wants me to make the coffee for him, serve his food, etc. I don't mind it sometimes but when I'm really so tired sometimes I tell him to just let the nanny do it. Whenever, that happens he makes a big deal out of it. He would say that I am not taking good care of him. When I get irritated that's the time the small fight will start.
