My dh and I have one hard goal: for him to be able to quit his job and be a stay at home dad. We are 3 years (conservatively) away from that goal, but every financial decision we make is geared toward making that dream a realitiy. I do not want to be SAHM, I like my job and prefer to work. I have more earning potential than my husband and would be able to provide a better life for us. So no, I don't think that women should universally stay home and men work. Couples (gay or straight) should do what works for them.
