Girl comic expectation vs reality

It never was, and it still isn’t, an easy task to be a wholesome woman. We don’t want to undermine men, who in comparison, has it seemingly easy when it comes everyday trials and tribulations, but us, ladies, have to deal with so much of nonsensical crap on a daily basis. Starting with more serious issues as the gender pay gap and ending with high beauty standards and periods, there’s a lot to deal with when you’re a woman.
