Great Credit, but unemployed, Should we buy a house under spouses name or jointly (she's employed)?

Yeah, I'd feel better if both spouses are employed, too, but my real point in posting was that it almost seems like a situation where there could be a gender aspect.  I am of the opinion that if they are getting a mortgage, both should be on it unless there's a credit or debt issue on his part.  They certainly should be considering whether or not to get a mortgage, but I see no reason to leave him off of the mortgage if they do go through with it.
