Don't tell me you think that women are strong and even that they might be able to make decisions without their husbands help? Surely not with their smaller stature and emotionality. 
Surely you don't need to be

but you are correct

You said that "'they' don't accept 'us'" and that is a major stumbling block because by rejecting hadith we are viewed to have forsaken part of Islam and this of course is a really serious thing. I do think sometimes the negativity can work the other way, of course. Even just judging myself; I am just coming out of a really hard time where I was so frustrated with the people I know, the people around me because of their attachment to hadith. This was not the best me. But like I said, I'm coming out of that now hamdulillah, I'm moving forward. If you are a majority Muslim and have faith in hadith I don't think it's as easy to be accepting of those with different views because hadith and Muslim are so intertwined. What to do? 
May Allah help you and make you strong.
You remind me of my friend who is in hospital now suffering from TB. He is still under his father as he don't earn anything. Now when he got sick and they took out X-Ray for him, then they came to know he is suffering from TB.
While going to admit in the hospital, his father said, "Still you have time, tell me that you will start following hadith and pray 5 times a day, then I will take care of you and hospital expenses, or else do whatever you like to, I am not gonna spend a single penny on you".
He is having some saved money, so replied to his father, "No, I cannot go against what Allah said".
And he is in hospital since a week now, they said, it may take 9 months to recover. This poor guy is alone and suffering difficulties

Please pray for him ask Allah to help him come out of his difficult time and make him strong to remain on Eimaan.

May Allah guide us all towards the truth.
