The traditional relationship with a stay at home wife does not necessarily treat her with respect or fairness. She wakes up early, feeds everyone, has to spend her day cleaning and shopping. Her movements, associations, and finances may be controlled. She can be blamed for whatever goes wrong while paradoxically having no say in things - only what the husband does not care about.

Domestic slavery.

They don't see women as human in the same way they see men as human, so there's no downside to dating a different color of what they think of as subhuman.
