No we don't. That is the bad fanfiction version of the WW. The real WW
has oldfashioned dresses and things, but had equality between men and
woman centuries before the Muggle world. In the real WW women were
head of St. Mungo's, Headmistress of Hogwarts, high raking MoM
employees when in the Muggle world they could not even vote. 

There is no indication whatsoever that the WW has this kind of
Victorian morals.
