Which country are you talking about? Women have been allowed to own property in USA from the beginning. Married women lost their right to own property separately, but that is the opposite of what you are suggesting, women still married men, some women did intentionally not marry though to not lose their property rights.

If we made women have all control over the property after marriage as you suggest we go back to then that would just make men marry women at even lesser rates.
