I grew up adjacent to super evangelicals and never heard of anything like this. Yes, there was a ton of pushing for traditional gender roles. And really, that's up to the women to decide if that's how they want to live their life. Clearly they shouldn't be forced into it but if they willingly choose it, then :shrug:? I don't believe in the Amish lifestyle, but so long as there is an actual escape path and they aren't being held against their will, I don't really see a problem with it. Some people want to live their life subordinate to others. I don't see the allure but some do.
The key difference here is that if an evangelical wife doesn't like her husband's views on life, she can just go to the court house and divorce him and move wherever the heck she wants, and do whatever she wants to do. I don't think that same freedom exists in Saudi Arabia.
