I thought feminism was about equality, same wage for same work.

If women have the gained the right to choose between house wife and career, then what choices do men have?
It's certainly about equality but it goes way beyond just same wage for same work. It goes to breaking down the prejudices and discrimnation that create gender roles in work and the home. Equality means that the gender of a person makes no difference, they are judged purely on qualifications, ability and merit.

Men get to choose to do whatever they want like they've always been able to.
