Commentary for Bava Kamma 178:11

לימא תקנת אושא תנאי היא דתני חדא עבדי מלוג יוצאין בשן ועין לאשה אבל לא לאיש ותניא אידך לא לאיש ולא לאשה

and what was meant was this: Just as in the case of a wife assigning her <i>kethubah</i> to others she does thereby not impair the clause in the <i>kethubah</i> regarding the male children, the reason being that she might have been compelled to do it on account of a pressing need for money, so should also be the case where a wife assigns her <i>kethubah</i> to her own husband, that she would thereby not impair the clause in the <i>Kethubah</i> dealing with male children on the ground that she might have been compelled to do this for lack of funds.
