What does the phrase 'a good marriage would be between a blind wife and a deaf husband' mean?

It's a phrase based on the age old jokes about men not wanting their wives to know what they are doing all the time, and women talking too much. A blind wife wouldn't be able to see what her husband is doing, and her husband wouldn't have to listen to her constant chatter.
