It is a bit problematic that the original comment doesn't seem to consider women as potential provider for a family and the narrative is centered around a male provider.
Evolution works on the level of genes. It literally cannot prescribe complex social roles. "In the old days", both men and women worked full-time at various tasks: hunting, gathering, mending, caring, building, planting, harvesting, etc.
It absolutely can. Evolutionary psychology is science, and it's based on the scientific method (ironically, unlike the sociology that's obsessed with "gender roles", which isn't based on science at all). Check out Gad Saad's podcast on Joe Rogan.
