Media personality, Chioma Amaryllis Ahaghotu, has stated that a number of men will not survive carrying out the responsibilities they expect of women. Chioma Ahaghotu pointed out that in addition to bearing a child, childcare, and home making, men also expect women to contribute financially. She added that men with these expectations would not agree to switch places and responsibilities with the women because they know it's an "unequal bargain". She wrote: "If you really think about it, many men would never survive under the very conditions they expect women to live through. "Contribute financially. "Get pregnant, carry a child for nine months, risk your health, your body, even your life. "Raise the kids, manage the home, juggle the endless invisible labor. "Remain faithful, even when your needs arent met, even when youre stretched thin, even when you carry more weight than your partner. "If you asked most men, 'Would you switch places with a woman for just one year under those same expectations?' the answer would be a resounding no. They wouldnt volunteer for it. "And thats the irony: the very life women are told is 'normal' or 'expected' is one men themselves would not choose if given the option. "Thats because deep down, they know its an unequal bargain. "They know the sa*crifices are heavier, the demands relentless, and the recognition scarce. "Yet instead of challenging the imbalance, society normalizes it. "Women are expected to endure it, and men are allowed to benefit from it. "The truth is profound and uncomfortable: if men would not willingly step into the lives women are living, its proof that those lives require extraordinary strength. "And its also proof that the standard most women are held to is unfair, its constructed, and it can be dismantled."
