Because they're idiots. No, seriously, most of women are in charge of the house and have to take care of the house responsabilities, therefore they're housewives. But I don't think they should be called like that, I hate this stupid term because it's not the main thing that defines a woman. They call them housewives as if it's a label... And I just hate it. They could normally call them wives, but since their house responsabilities are almost equal with their wife responsabilities that's why they're called housewives.

It is not just men that call women housewives - but basically housewives are probably married more to their house than with their husband.

Men do not call all women housewives. Housewives, or "homemakers" refer to those women who stay at home instead of working. When men do this we call them BUMS.
