I would love to see families going back to being traditional families again, but the reality is I don't see it happening. There is too much, 'I have to have it all now' and the only way to get it is by both parents working.

I don't think it is sexist by the way. In today's world though I don't see it happening. I guess I'm too much of a realist.
The only reason couples find it hard to have single wage earner households these days is socialism in America, i.e., high taxes and redistribution. Add to that the devalued dollar, and you have your answer.
