Being a girl is tough. You men may think you have it harder but boy oh boy are you wrong. Us women are always struggling.

For starters, women ALWAYS have to put effort into how they look. Even when we are “bumming” it, we still find ourselves going the extra mile to look presentable. We have to fix our hair and our face simply to run a quick errand. (Trust me when I say pulling off that messy bun and “natural” look is A LOT harder than it looks). You boys on the other hand, can pull off an appearance with minimal effort. A quick comb of the hair and spritz of deodorant and you are off to the races.

Another fortunate thing about being a guy is you almost never have to think about the clothes you are wearing. Us women have to put thought into every outfit we wear, every second of everyday. Mix matching clothes is a big NO NO for us. We have to wear nice clothing regardless of the occasion. One fashion mishap and BOOM you are on the cover of “What not to Wear.” Men simply do not have that pressure. You can pull of pajama pants and a rugged old t-shirt and still be considered “good looking”.

Not only do us women take time in the way we dress and look, we are forced to spend LOADS of cash too. Our clothes, our makeup, and even our little pampering cost a fortune. Lucky for you men, you do not have to spend a penny to look good. You can wear $10 shirts from Walmart and look just as nice. Oh how great life would be if mascara and a quick pedicure did not cost hundreds of dollars…

Boys be grateful for your metabolism because let me tell you dieting for girls is hell. We can barely shed inches, while you have the luxury of loosing weight at the tip of a hat. Women can eat a crumb and STILL pack on the pounds. Men can cut out carbs and drop weight like flies. You can eat Chipotle and still have the body of The Rock, while girls are stuffing vegan food down their throat, barely gracing an ab.

So the next time you want to complain, put yourself in a girl’s shoes, you’ll never complain again.
