Why is it that women seem to expect to be provided for more by men in developed regions?

You would expect that in developed regions where women have access to jobs they would expect less from men and be more willing to work themselves yet somehow the opposite is true. Women in developed regions work in STEM jobs the least and demand that men give them the most. Meanwhile in less developed countries women are far more willing to work and ironically expect to be provided for by men less.

The STEM Paradox: Why are Muslim-Majority Countries Producing So Many Female Engineers?

Dr. Jennifer DeBoer's research team has been at work in Tunisia, Malaysia, and Jordan to determine how Muslim-majority countries are closing the gap for women pursuing engineering.

I would question whether they actually require more in developed regions. And if they do it may simply correlate with the level of wealth they're used to. Eg. women everywhere want 10% of gdp per capita from their guy, would result in western women wanting for more in absolute value while the actual requirement is the same, just scaled to local living standards.
