Our society is bias, tend to favour boy child. I think couples should discuss responsibilities at hand and share them equally.
The society is designed to favor men by default. Things are changing slowly but the cards are still stacked against us.
Most marriages cling and hold on to the fact that the woman is to dutifully the house and the man is not to do any of that. But this is slowly changing and it’s totally dependant on the couple. Some men have cancelled that perception of marriage and are balancing duties with their wives. It’s totally upto the couple to agree and live to this trend.
I believe communication is the key to a healthy relationship
In balanced/healthy marriages,spouses are sexually and emotionally faithful to each other.
One of the main reasons why women have to make a lot of sacrifices for a marriage to last is because most of them are dependent on men for financial provision. Men take advantage of this situation and think that women have to makes sacrifices so as to earn the money or rather any help they are offering. This though is fading away since many women are independent nowadays and does not need to ask for money or any other thing from a man to survive.
Another reason is that traditionally women have been making sacrifices because their tradition says so. There is no much reason for this rather than just following an ancient tradition.
