The graph you link to doesn't specify where it came from, how it was measured, or more specifically whether/how it counts housewives / married couples.
Where it came from: 2005 US Census. Probably doesn't make any such distinctions between married and unmarried women.
Looking at the source data files, I'm guessing there are a lot of zero incomes to be explained there, as well as things like unpaid maternity leave. I'm not sure what it's appropriate for my wife to write in the census - 0 or my salary or half my salary.
There is probably still a gender gap, but it remains to be shown that it's greater than the race gap.
