This is how women's lib and all other issues are resolved in our home:
Female is permited to work and to spend the money she earned on anything she wants.
Male works and takes care of ALL the living expences. Whatever is left after that - he spends any way he wishes.
His account and her account are off-limits to each-other (she does not buy him a gift with his own money and wise-wersa).
Common rooms are decorated by both (female usually wins - 99%).
Private rooms like separate accounts.
P.S. We've been happy together for the past 10+ years.
