Whether we like it or not, we live in a world where gender equality is still just a dream. And there are a lot of things in this world that are a lot easier for men than for women: making more money, having political influence, having sex with more people and not having to hear the word "whore" in your address, etc.ะด. But I'm not writing this article to spoil your mood. It's not all bad. There are some things that are a lot harder for guys than they are for us. Here are 10 things like that.
Being a fashionista
At first glance, it might seem like anything that has to do with style is easier for guys. They just don't have to think about it at all, you choose from two colors and three styles. But if some guy suddenly wants to express himself and create his own style, then he's in for a real challenge. You don't believe me?? Just go into the men's department of any store.
Use makeup
That's pretty clear too, yeah? If a guy can still afford a fragrance or deodorant, then everything else is still in the category for the very brave. The stereotype of masculinity and brutality is still alive.
Being an elementary school teacher
This is not a man's profession – we hear it from everywhere. And of course, that has nothing to do with the truth. Men make great teachers.
Talking about your feelings
Another stereotype that works against guys. If you're a man, you can't afford to be a sissy and a wuss. Of course, all feelings fall into the "pink snot" category. As a result, guys just can't figure out for themselves what they feel and name their emotion correctly. And here, of course, is the famous expression "boys don't cry.". Failure to express emotion hurts the rest of the guy's life, and can even lead to physical ailment and serious illness.
Go on a date and get acquainted online
Contrary to popular belief, it's much easier for girls. To begin with, they are more open and straightforward. And they tend to have a wider choice of potential partners. Maybe it's because it's still not acceptable to get to know someone first? Hmm… I don't know. But the fact remains.
Ask for help
If you're carrying something heavy up the stairs, your neighbor Uncle Peter is more likely to help you than your classmate, should he find himself in the same situation. A man has to do it himself – so most people think. These same "cockroaches" in the brain cause guys to refuse to help girls. It's not manly!
To work as a nanny
We all, of course, remember the movie "The Moustache Nanny"… But the reality is that this specialty is a highly undesirable one for men. And that's another gender stereotype. After all, there are many men who really enjoy messing around with babies.
Get a big tip
If a waiter is a guy, according to the statistics he gets less tips than his female colleagues.
Crying
You'd be surprised, but a lot of guys physically can't bring themselves to cry. They just can't. And it's awfully hard. You and I know how good it is to cry sometimes! At once it becomes easier to breathe, and the unpleasantness does not seem so great any more. Guys have to keep it all inside or blow off steam in another way, in some cases with aggression ..
Get something for free
It's awfully stupid, but it's true. A girly smile works so much better. And he can get the cab driver not to charge you for the ride, for example. That doesn't work so well with guys.
