I have to admit, in this case gender roles are huge…
From my experience men usually wait till they are well settled and have a job then they go and get married if they don’t have a place of their own its OK because they can live with his family, its totally OK if the girl doesn’t want to work or takes time in finding a job, or gets pregnant, etc…
however most parents get thier girls married right after their education and some do not have jobs, so after they are married they are expected to find a job, find a place to live and practically support both of them, which is not always bad, but most likely some power issues and stuff would arise…also what if the girl gets pregnant?? What if he can’t find a job?? Stress from such issues can also lead to many problems, but if the genders were to be switched it would be a totally different story…
