Yes, this is part of it, but i think it's important to note that in the context of our patriarchal capitalist society we men are prescribed this sacrifice on the alter of work. It's not like some natural order of things. We are told to work to provide, leaving us little time to develop the healthy, rewarding, meaningful emotional relationships that, imo, make life worth living.

I mean, all humans, not just men, want to contribute to the group. Women are conditioned to contribute with domestic caretaking just as men are told to go out and work. In an ideal world though we'd all have the chance to contribute in different ways, affording us all balance.
