0) : no, women aren't expected to be attractive; you guys place that on yourself due to competition with your friends because you want to attract the buffest guys in the club; and due to all the social media outlet that states that you 'must buy the latest makeup kit'; as the media states that, by buying all the makeup kits or eye shadow; a guys would be more attracted to you. and like a pack of fools, you all fall for it.
1) 'are men expected to wax, shave, nair and pluck ALL the hair below the neck?' < no. albeit, women aren't either; you place this on yourselves through the media telling you that guys don't like hairy girls. besides, reverse the roles and lets see if you can confidently tell me you'd
APPROACH a hairy guy - with hair all down his back - a cousin to chewbacca.
2) ' I went to the hair dresser 2 days ago. Cost me $125.00. A man can get his hair cut for under $20.00.' < yes, because:
you pay to have your hair styled, highlighted, dyed and the like. guys don't pay that amount, because they don't pay to have their hair styled and the like. you could
easily waltz into the barber shop and get a hair cut if you wanted to you know; there are no rules that state otherwise.
3) 'Makeup - Firstly, its not cheap, look at any brand name cosmetic site. It also takes a lot of time and practice to master - its almost an Art to do a skilled cats eye.' < see, this is the one thing i Hate about female preparation. Nobody tells you to put on makeup. you do that. of your own accord. because of inspiration and instructions from the 'daily mail' and all the other magazines who tell you to put on makeup. guys prefer natural beauty; no one wants to wake up to a gollem in the morning. and the answer to that? you guys force yourself to wear make up; so that you can attract the buffest guy in the club and because the magazines told you to do so. you bring this on yourself.
4) 'Clothes - Do you think guys like frumpy, no fashion sense having girls. There is constant pressure to look fashionable, sexy but not slutty. Almost impossible. And how many men walk around in 6inch heels? Not straight ones.' << for this, two parts:
a) guys do not care about fashion for them to start dressing themselves properly, let alone to reject girls who aren't fashionably dressed.
b) again, you get this drivel from the magazines. most guys would be happy with a girl who looked decent (any interpretation). therefore, as a species, you females force yoursef to buy the 6-inch heels and the like so as you in your mind, can attract the buffest guy in the club; because daily mail and all the other magazines told you it would work.
5) 'Body image - Dont be fat girls, men hate fatties. Dont be twigs girls, men like ass and tits. Spend hours at the gym trimming your waist and firming those thighs.' << do women not like and actively state that a guy must be well-built? do women not swoon on
every advert that comes on that shows a guys built body (e.g. the coke advert when the guy took off his shirt; or any of david beckhams' adverts; e.t.c)? this point goes both ways. both sexes demand that the other be physically fit. no one has it worse.
you're also forgetting that, in addition to the above; girls then place ridiculous standards for guys to obtain and violently mock, ridicule and belittle all the guys that do not obtain these standards (believe me they do, i've been in several of those 'girlfriends/besties chats'
:
1) he wasn't 6foot.
2) he wasn't funny.
3) charming. didn't open the door.
4) didn't initiate the conversation/pay for the meal.
5) didn't keep the convo going.
6) wasn't popular for me to be interested.
7) he wasn't rich/didn't drive a huge car/house/didn't take me to an expensive restaurant.
8) e.t.c
i dare you to find
actual standards that have been placed on women in human to human interactions - if you can.
for example, if he wasn't 6 foot and a girl likes 6 foot guys; she'd usually be like (to her friends): 'Omg, this short guy was hitting on me today; obviously forgot that he isn't entitled to the goods on the 'top shelf'.
or 'omg guys, he wasn't funny and din't try to like keep the convo going. hawwkkwarrdd!!'.
