I find it frustrating how often the excuse, "Men and women are just biologically different," is used to justify sexism. Everyone is biologically different, regardless of gender or sex. Humans are too different to be kept in these rigid boxes and, therefore, these generalizations can't apply. There's an idea that men are naturally stronger than women. Well that depends on the man and depends on the woman. There are too many stereotypes when it comes to gender (especially women) to accurately fit everyone in a box. I wish people could just see others for who they are instead of attaching a label that works to confine them.
I often find it frustrating when I am seen as merely a body, when that is the first thing people will judge me for- my appearance. I also can be seen as touchy- in the way that people are afraid to say something because I might be ‘too emotional‘ about it.
Something I find very frustrating is the fact that I can't just go for a walk, especially at night. I also find it very frustrating that guys don't really understand that we are taught from a young age to be so weary about our surroundings and that our safety is always constantly on our minds.
As a women, it is frustrating to know that we have limitations only because we are women. Women are thought to be more vulnerable in situations than a men would be, and because of that we can't always do what we want. We do not always feel safe in certain places because we are looked at as inferior and more vulnerable.
Being a woman sometimes I feel shame in certain situations. For example, I feel embarrassed when I have to buy feminine products and the store and I feel like people are looking at me a certain way.
As a women I find it frustrating when typical stereotypes are used such as women belong at home with the children. Women are just as capable to go out and work every day just as men do.
Something frustrating about being a woman is that we are not always seen equally. Although men and women have different strengths and weaknesses, that does not make one gender superior to another.
Something I find frustrating about being a woman is sometimes men are seen as the providers and they are supposed to be the ones who we should be dependent on. I think that as a woman it is important to be strong and to be able to do things on your own without someone else.
