As the husband in such situations, I find this very frustrating from a practical perspective.

Guy comes over to install some tech. Me and my wife are both home. I'm working, she's doing chores. She knows her stuff and did the research, I very clearly don't know shit about fuck. Guy looks for me every time he has a question. The answer is always "I don't know, but my wife does". After I tell him this, he still doesn't ask her, just makes a decision on his own, so I have to drop everything and get her to make sure he doesn't fuck things up. At one point, I had to ask my wife to physically stand next to the dude so that he wouldn't interrupt an important meeting. She later told me he still tried to look for me.

When we need repairs or some kind of work done, I have to be the one making the call because I'm less likely to be ripped off or treated rudely. And since I'm dumb, I have to prepare for these calls because they sometimes cross-examine you with terms I never even heard of. In the middle of a busy workday, while my wife has the time and the know-how. We share household tasks with my wife as equally as possible, I'm just stuck with this.

Female contractors popped up in the area recently. I instantly chose them every time. No such issues.
