What is gender? What is sex?
'Sex' and 'gender' are often used interchangeably, despite having different meanings:
Gender refers to the socially constructed roles, behaviours, expressions and identities of girls, women, boys, men, and gender diverse people. It influences how people perceive themselves and each other, how they act and interact, and the distribution of power and resources in society. Gender identity is not confined to a binary (girl/woman, boy/man) nor is it static; it exists along a continuum and can change over time. There is considerable diversity in how individuals and groups understand, experience and express gender through the roles they take on, the expectations placed on them, relations with others and the complex ways that gender is institutionalized in society.

MALE AND FEMALE
A #particular gender, due to their natural tendencies may contribute more in some aspects (child birth, childcare, etc for women; tasks that require manpower, bringing more money to the table, etc for men) but should not be exclusively left out of the opposite roles.
When both partners have #jobs; house chores and the rest normally wont be limited to the lady; automatically, you both share the #duties; but if the man is working and the lady a house wife, then she is "working from home" and will ofcourse be expected to take care of the house duties.
Now, #love making is a 2 way thing and should not be seen as a reward for men.
Cheating as well in relationships is not limited to the male party.
We can't eat our #cake and have it! Expecting a particular gender to provide for all financial needs while giving maximum respect is almost #impossible!
A lot of us will say we have enough to take care of ourselves; It is not enough to be self sufficient but also to contribute to the growth of the family; that includes #finances
How will it sound if for e,g a man said; Unless a woman shares the bills, I will never clean🙄
#Childbirth is no doubt incomparable to any other 'task' as it is in itself complicated considering the 9 months prior that. Women are always applauded for that. But things are changing with the coming of surrogates and epidiural birth. Will the woman be considered any useful then if all she can boast of is giving birth eventhough the 'skill' is now almost replaceable?
In the event where your partner's source of income is interrupted, what will become of the #Union ?
It definitely feels good as a lady to find that partner who is ready to take up all the financial responsibilities.
The question is AT WHAT COST?
My take on all this equality issues should be looked at from both ends

Thats nice presentation @njiatanga.
My question is can man give birth? Why won't she be considered? Do you know the kind of pains woman pass through in child bearing to an extent some women lost their life in that. To carry a baby for good 9months is not a day job.
To the financial aspect, nowadays both parties are paetaker of it, you hardly see a house wife now, because of the sustem of things now everybofy is working hard to earn a good living. If your woman is helpinv you in financial aspect that does not mean you as the head will not perform your duty as a man in the house.
I rest my case.
