well that's judaism. its not a gender thing, its a faith thing. if the mother is jewish by decree of the torah the child must also be jewish.
Judaism is VERY patriarchal on the whole, but women get thrown a bone here or there. besides it's evolutionary darwinism for judaism: if the woman marries outside her faith, then the kid's got to be a jew too. that's a fucking great idea if you want a religion to grow (and old school men circa Moses came up with that idea to expand the faith).
It doesn't matter. A man shouldn't be letting his woman decide his children's religion. It'd be like if your wife belonged to a religion which said the children had to take her maiden name, would that make it okay? Fuck no.
I know most men may not care these days, but one of the most basic aspects of having children is that a man gets to pass down his beliefs and values.
The simple solution is to not procreate with this type of woman.
