Sadly, most men who make statements like this don't actually know what "traditional" entails. Are you saying you want a stay at home wife and you can afford to pay all of the bills on your own (comfortably with money for kids, healthcare and vacations) so that she can focus on raising the children and managing the household? If so, lots of women would choose you! If you can't afford that "traditional" lifestyle, then you're offering potential poverty with a stay at home wife. Women are interested in partnership, so if we share financial responsibilities, then we're sharing the duties. You can't have it all ways in today’s society. The cost of living is too high to have single income traditional families...unless you can afford it!
