Maybe it's an upspoken girl code ...

Lis, you really think women expect other women to be responsible? ...

we hear it all the time. in friends' talks, in the movies, on the internet.

You asked about why the imperative. Here it is:

.... The actual thing about MORAL is to build a reliable/secure environment. ... Moral is a contract between all of us. Don't kill me when you are mad at me and I won't kill your child when I am mad at you. So simple.

... x% pure egoism + y% moral and altruism.
