To call a spade a spade, it is not scriptural. The Lord has committed the care of the home to the woman. But how? Lets see Proverbs 31:10-31

A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies.
Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.
She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.
She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.
She is like the merchant ships,
bringing her food from afar.

She gets up while it is still night;
she provides food for her family and portions for her female servants.
She considers a field and buys it;
out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
She sets about her work vigorously;
her arms are strong for her tasks.
She sees that her trading is profitable,
and her lamp does not go out at night.
In her hand she holds the distaff
and grasps the spindle with her fingers.

She opens her arms to the poor
and extends her hands to the needy.
When it snows, she has no fear for her household;
for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
She makes coverings for her bed;
she is clothed in fine linen and purple.

Her husband is respected at the city gate,
where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
She makes linen garments and sells them,
and supplies the merchants with sashes.
She is clothed with strength and dignity;
she can laugh at the days to come.

She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.

Her children arise and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
“Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all.”

Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.
Honor her for all that her hands have done,
and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

You as a wife will do well to understand this early enough, to prevent the suffering that may follow those who will not yield.
Do this with wisdom however if your husband will not agree. Some men prevent their wives from working to lord it over them. If a man loves his wife, he will allow her to be a Biblical virtuous woman.

Husbands love your wives. You man love your wife.
Mothers be virtous and find time to train your children as well. Manage your home with discretion.
Thank you.

Nowhere does the Bible endorse the "full housewife" thingy. It is, like you said, a matter of discretion.

What is a FULL HOUSEWIFE?
Cleaning your fourth floor one bedroomed apartment thrice in a day and washing your clothes right off the clothes line to pass time. All the time sitting on her PhD as you,the mechanic scouts for odd jobs?

Well, the roadside mechanic, just like Henry Ford is better than a jobless woman whose job is doing PhD which will not contribute as much as the CEO of Innoson Motors- also a former mechanic. Isn't it?

You need comprehension lessons
