I totally get your point and no relationship (platonic or romantic) can be genuine if it relies on calculations. Yet, I have the feeling that woman still have to be a bit cautious of splitting chores because I witness that woman rather tend to do the sacrifices and take over for the good of their partner. This doesn't have to apply to every relationship. But it's happening definitely systematically because many girls are socialized to give where many boys are socialized to take.

Your intuition is correct and matches my personal experience - granted I myself have been viewed as a man for my entire life.
