    Depends on what you think the equivalent behaviour is.

    If macho is the limited and stereotypical image of manhood than possible it is trad wife.

    But that is only one interpretation.

        You might want to tread carefully here. Because it’s highly likely that you’re thinking of the traditional representation in media of women, which is typically held by men. A clueless, helpless, beautiful, innocent “Madonna and whore.” It seemed like you were asking (and getting answers for) the women’s version of “macho” culture (which is typically, these days, mixed into the “alpha male” culture). The other side of that same coin would be the “trad wife” thing where women believe they should be under a man’s direction, a wife first and a person second.

        Just saying we might not be having the same conversation.
