Why do always 'women' sacrifice?
Do you wonder why is it that only women are expected to (and love to) sacrifice in all situations. If there is less of something, the woman will be the first to refuse it. If someone has to give up work for home responsibility, it has to be the woman. If someone has to wake up in the nights to change baby nappies, it has to be the woman (even if working). If the husband and wife like to watch different things on the telly, usually the husband's wishes will prevail. So on and so forth.
