Yeah, I think if you are forced to do something and not paid a mutually agreed upon wage, and then you die, you are not getting monetary compensation for that sacrifice.
But you may gladly go along with all of it, even the risk of death, because of what you care about. Your family, your town, your country.
Which is why claiming the work of either men or women is done for free is silly. There are so many other values in life.
