Very simple: I want to be loved and respected.
I expect fidelity and honesty.
Everything else falls under that.

A modern wife...would not expect too much from her husband. Rather, she would communicate her needs to him and trust he would listen, understand, and care enough for her soul to do what he can to protect her soul. She would trust he would make her feel safe, and do what she has to do to keep him feeling safe as well.
I don't get it, it's all expectations and not agreement. You can expect the bus to come and fetch you from home at 10 AM, but does it mean it now has to do it?
Once a loving, modern couple agreed to something, to mutual respect, then one can discuss anything, and be in a position where there are almost no expectations.
All will flow between you, and you'll willingly respond to each other, without attitude and hangups and bs mindgames. There would be peace and individuality, and togetherness, and trust and warmth...and safety...and so many more goodest of the good things in life.
if you don't have someone like that in your life, you might've gotten married for the wrong reasons.
Here's the great news...even if you did marry for more-complicated reasons, its never too late for a modern wife to open this conversation with her husband, and show him how this approach would work best for everybody...yes..she'll be able to influence him for good, in wisdom.

Now this one really depends on what your definition of a "modern wife" is. Are we talking New Age, George Jetson type or just your average run of the mill faithful and subservient wife like you see on the old TV shows i.e. June Cleaver, Harriet Nelson, Edith Bunker types? I guess, being a wife myself I only ask that my mate treat me with respect, talk to me and not down to me, be my equal partner and best friend in life, and love me. All of which I give equally back to him. I love my husband dearly, he's a really great guy and I don't think there's nothing that I wouldn't do for him, because he is so good to me. We always keep the lines of communication open with each other too. And you never ever go to bed angry with your partner.

wife expectation is SAME in modern and old. But there is difference in expectations of matured wife and unmatured wife. You have to look at whether she is matured enough or not.
One may not be matured today, as the time goes on... will become matured.
Love, respect, honesty, support and equality!

Hi tech appliance and gadget in the kitchen, a modern bedroom and living room. Modern pocket money, to live modern luxurious life with branded dresses from 'lifestyles', and a modern chauffeur driven car at her disposal.
The modern wife expects that her husband finance all her modern needs and expenses

There are seven things she wants. 1) Similes, the first and foremost requirement and then she wants him to be 2) Bold, 3) confident. She wants him to have 4) positive attitude; he wants him to live on 5) 'now'. Wants him to do a lot of 6) exercises, wants him 7) not to take things personally always. Thre are the success of modern day happiness.

The same thing that the "Olden Days" wife expected from her husband! Love, honor and cherish.... that means you put her happiness before your own ...as she would put yours before hers..live your life with dignity that would never tarnish her name as she would never bring dishonor to the name that you gave her at your marriage.... and be forever faithful ... you cherish her by your fidelity as she cherishes you with hers.... worldly riches are not a measure of a good husband .sure it makes life easier ...NOT happier!!!.... A good marriage is NOT easy... it's hard work..... If you are willing to invest your heart and time into making a marriage work, that's all any wife should expects.
