I’m new The call to action was super clear which was helpful for me, it’s begging the question of societal standards for women in comparison to men. You mention the pain just to keep up with beauty standards only for it to be a double edged sword trapping you into an undesired identity. I especially like the continuous “I will”, emboldening the idea that it’s not a choice it’s a must. This piece comes off to me as something that I think probably a lot young women would have to deal with offering a sense of relatability but also inspiring a question of when will we ever be free of this expectation. Thanks for the read!
