I really don't understand this question here. What I know is that when living on the same household with a woman let's say your wife the man is deemed a provider and must pay all the bills and the shopping for the family.

If a husband and wife, finances will be the responsibility of the husband, but if the man earns less then there is nothing wrong if the woman also helps or shares the bill at home, if both of them have a large income then the husband's income is to meet all needs while the wife's income can be for buy a house, a new car or invest.

Agree, if both has big earnings better decide that way for fairness. The couple must have the right the right decision to avoid conflict. If the wife earns high she could pay all the bills.

The house is a conjugal property not solely owned by the husband unless the wife married a man who already has a house and lot.
So you mean whether the assets acquired after marriage are joint assets. What if the man's income is used to meet daily needs while the woman's income is saved or to buy a car, whether the car is joint property or the car belongs to the wife.

I don't think so as long as the asset belong to husband if there is joint asset of wife and husband than they have to share the bills

Perhaps the joint property will be agreed before they get married or according to the customs where they live, if there is no clarity then it will be difficult to divide the assets when they divorce.

That's the law in my country after marriage what the husband or wife own becomes conjugal property. I don't have any idea in your country. It might be different.

That means, when they divorce there is a division of joint property, maybe 50%:50% or more equally for the wife because usually the children will follow the wife. Means the rules of your country are the same as mine.

That's true it's also the same here. I think also in United States of America unless the spouse is caught doing an infidelity with a proof there's no sharing of properties.

That depends on the agreement of the couple. If both parties work to earn money, I see no problem sharing bills. If the woman stays at home taking care of the family, the man should support the family financially.

I don't think there is anything wrong with the man and the woman sharing the bills at home. If the man cannot afford it himself due to one thing or the other, then can choose to share it.
