[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 30 and this does not surprise me in the least. I remember hoping as early as in high school that I would never have a daughter. The pressure on girls is immense, much more so than boys.[/quote]

I’m 40 and didn’t feel this way at all. I would never want to be a man. [/quote]

Ditto. Love being a woman. Of course, I have opted out of traditional beauty and social stuff since I was a teen. Don’t care if I am not the most beautiful or popular. People think I am weird but w/e.[/quote]

That’s nice for you but rather tone deaf given the prevalence of mental health issues/ suicide/ self harming and violence experienced by many teen girls now.

Tone deaf isn't the right word.  If one person loves or is content with themselves and their sex/gender while another person hates (?) themselves or their sex/gender or wants to be the other/a different sex/gender, then it is difficult for the people to relate to one another.  That doesn't mean that one of them is tone deaf.  It means that it is difficult to relate to one another.  [/quote]
