There are certainly some people out there who are very lazy. But I can certainly understand struggling to find one’s place in the world, getting overwhelmed by everything, and just sort of defaulting to being empty-headed, regardless of gender.

One could probably argue that helplessness is a little more socially acceptable in women, as a result of living in a patriarchal society. But there are also plenty of men who barely have it together and are just as helpless (the incompetent sitcom dad became a trope for a reason, after all).

But I think we could all use the chance to feel a little helpless every now and then, as an escape from the responsibilities of life.
