Based on information involving 4 couples for whom wives earned more\u00a0than their husbands and wanted their partners to make changes, this article\u00a0analyzed how the normative gender ideology and economic resources\u00a0co-operate in and shape the marital power.
\nWe found wives could exercise more power only when husbands wanted\u00a0economic help from them. Spouses often demonstrated a joint effort to ensure\u00a0the unconventional did not feel too unconventional. The costs of being\u00a0perceived as deviant from the gender-norm were minimized by gender\u00a0strategies. Gender ideology and gender strategies which neutralizing deviance\u00a0usually made wives more disadvantaged. This article also demonstrated what\u00a0Komter called the hidden power in marriage and highlighted how these couples\u00a0used gender strategies in ways that reinforced the husband\u2019s power. And we\u00a0found that these resources were gendered sufficiently so that they were less\u00a0important or less powerful when contributed by wives.<\/p>\n
