Explain the myth or fact in detail, if there's a personal anecdote, list it here.

Fact: Caregiving is not an inherent trait tied to gender. It is a skill that can be developed by anyone, regardless of sex. Women have been socially conditioned to take on caregiving roles due to societal expectations, not because of innate abilities.
