Soooo true… Ladies you’re not the only gender out there with huge body problems… 

for michelle

the only difference is that the pressure towards men is to keep their power, whereas the pressure on women is to keep power from them.

this is bullshit, just because gender constricts everybody doesn’t mean men experience sexism, sexual harrassment, or the threat of sexual violence the way women do, that’s why it’s called MALE domination

I’m sorry, but the fact that men have difficulty dealing with social norms (in a similar way that women do) is not bullshit. The Ken = Barbie concept is flawed, yes. Men have their own unique experiences to deal with. Women have theirs. Statistically and historically speaking, women and men have not been on the same level, and in most places they still aren’t. But making blanket statements and the demonizing of the male gender as a whole is just unfair.
