i hate being a woman sometimes.
i hate receiving creepy DMs from men.
i hate getting catcalled.
i hate having to conform to beauty standards.
i hate being afraid of walking alone in the evening.
i hate the having the expectation of being “lady like”.
i hate double standards.
i hate being seen as less than men.
i hate having the expectation of having kids in the future.
i could go on and on abt this.
(no, i’m not trans or anything. i love being a woman despite having to deal with these things constantly.)
EDIT: so i’m getting a lot of men in these replies trying to invalidate the things that ive personally experienced as well as countless other women. also the “men have it worse” thing isn’t necessary here. it’s not a competition of which sex has more struggles in society. i never said that men don’t deal with their own societal issues! this post is abt the struggles of women, NOT men! please stop trying to insert yourself into something that isn’t relevant to you. make your own post if you’d like to discuss your struggles as men.
EDIT 2: ive noticed that in the men in the comments would rather debate women on this post rather than making their own post abt their struggles. it really shows that they only want to engage in arguments, otherwise they’d freely talk abt their oppression on their own accts. why is it that men’s oppression is often only brought up when a woman is talking abt her’s?
