Teenage girls are facing impossible expectations (Opinion) - CNN
'"I can't go to sleep at night until I answer all my notifications," one high school student told me last week. '
'Notably, high school girls currently have the lowest levels of self-compassion of any group of youth. '
'Instead, we have shoveled more and more expectation onto the already robust pile of qualities we expect girls to possess. '
'And high achieving girls, Stanford professor Carol Dweck found, are the group of youth most "debilitated" by failure. '
'Rachel Simmons is the author of " Enough As She Is: How to Help Girls Move Beyond Impossible Standards of Success to Live Happy, Healthy, Fulfilling Lives ."'
Btw, the cunt who wrote the article advises girls to blame everyone else for their failures:
Adults should also stop telling girls they put too much pressure on themselves, and instead reassure daughters that it's a toxic culture that is asking too much of girls. This can mitigate girls' feelings of isolation and self-blame.
These snowflakes can't even play the game on easy mode much less normal or hard mode. Men are expected, no, required to play the game on any mode at any time and with nothing to protect them from failure. Women are just now waking up to the idea of why it was a man's world. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication with no regards to feels. I bet these girls would love to go back to that world and not have to compete for suitable men and for jobs. Feminism won't let them but I think it's just about over for feminists.

Haha shes right though. Our feminist toxic culture does indeed ask too much of girls.
