in terms of morality, it doesn't matter if the oppressed are aware of the oppression or not, either way it's immoral.

it's a kind of social type-casting, which is a form of prejudice and discrimination.

I don't think I've ever heard any arguments or philosophies which back up discrimination as passable let alone good.

I get that the women aren't complaining about it from a sexism standpoint, which is good I guess. But I've never met a Japanese woman who was exposed to a western relationship and didn't feel instantly envious of the shared cooking/cleaning/etc, even if it's still mostly the woman.
