I think the problem is two-fold:

- male writers who stick to the age-old, boring trope of "dumb husband/nagging wife" because it's worked in the past and they're going to continue to work it to death (despite being predictable and unfunny) because they grew up on those tropes and admittedly don't know how to write women as individuals and not stereotypes

- viewers who have grown up on "dumb husband/nagging wife" and thus interpret any negative action a female character does as fitting that mold. women characters who rightly tell their husbands, "uh no you're not going to take our children skydiving," (for example) become terrible harpy bitches for spoiling the fun. any legit criticism they have for any of the male characters is seen as horrible nagging and bitchiness.
