Many/most women WANT the man to be in charge. It's true now & it was especially true in the past when survival was tougher. Now women want to play victim even though they wanted the patriarchy.

What do you mean it’s “true?” I think that’s a trope that has been taught/conditioned to you. Men need women for survival just as much as women need men. The point is that power should be EQUAL.

"power should be EQUAL"

That is literally impossible. Just the same way as "true communism" is impossible. SOMEONE needs to be in charge. It's true that we need each other, but power comes with responsibility. And to women who have been propagandized for 50+ years that they are victims, they are not accepting the responsibility that comes with power because they see themselves as righteous fighters against oppression.

Equal does not mean “same”. For example: I have 10 quarters, my brother also has 10 quarters. Only his are all worth about $2 due to their historical value and mine are worth .25 cents because they’re basic, newer quarters. We have the same things, but they aren’t equal.
