Wait, I'm confused. Since when are men designed to be the breadwinners? It seems to me that in Tolkien's works, he emphasized that women weren't as strong as men physically, but in the cases of Luthien and Galadriel, could be far more powerful in other ways.

And, as an "agressive woman" myself, I think I am just as well designed to win bread as any man. Sure, I'm rather small, but I am just as strong mentally and physically as many men.
