People Are Sharing What They Envy About The Opposite Sex, And It’s A Riot

The battle of the sexes will go on forever—this is just a fact of life. No matter how hard we work to get along, there will always be something that we envy about the way another gender gets to live their life.

Granted, those things could be rooted in misinformation and weird stereotypes, but that doesn't change how we feel, now does it?

The Struggle Is Real

I know they've come up with all these fancy gadgets that will help women pee wherever they please, but it just isn't the same. There is still so much chance that you're going to end up with pee everywhere.

It sucks, but it is a fact that, in general, men just have better upper body strength than women do. The only reason most of us want a man is to have someone around to open the jam.

I don't know why more men don't go to the spa to get their hands and feet done. Everyone I know who has done it ends up loving it big time. Let's just make spas the new bars.

This is actually something I notice myself. Guys can wear dress pants, shirts and maybe a blazer, and maybe they're getting better with colors, but they must get hot sometimes.

Why don't guys comment on their friends' selfies? It's totally fine to tell your friend he's looking good and that his smile is stunning. Normalize compliments! Literally, what is wrong with gassing up your friends?

The eyelash thing really does get me. Who do these guys think they are, walking around with their beautiful Bambi eyelashes and perfect skin, without even doing anything to earn them?

Everyone Should Love Colors

Having the ability to wear whatever colors you want is a gift, and it should belong to everyone. If you want to wear pink Converse sneakers and blouses, you go for it!

The ultimate divide. When will women finally get functional pockets? Can you believe that we even have fake pockets on some of our clothes? I just can't. It doesn't seem right or fair.

It's sad that we've gotten to a point in the world where we don't trust that someone can just like kids. Kids are great and they make everyone smile, especially when they do that cute thing where they wave at strangers.

How Lucky Are They?

To be fair, they probably don't really get invited to any of those things, but they likely wouldn't go either way, and they have no idea how lucky that makes them.

Not being asked in general when you plan on having kids or if you're seeing someone would be nice. The most interesting thing about me is not my relationship status!!

Shaving Is The Worst

Technically, no one has to shave or wax their legs to wear a dress or shorts, but us ladies will get some pretty judgmental looks from everyone if we walk around with hairy legs.

I get how this can be frustrating to think about, but I would imagine that this works out less often than guys might think it does. Also, there is nothing stopping you from opening an OnlyFans, so you should go for it.

ALSO! Don't sass us about not owning our sexuality and then get mad when we do!

I'm sure that it's frustrating to be a guy and feel the pressure of being the one who has to make the first move and pay for everything, and I know there are a lot of people out there with that expectation.

Everyone Should Be Allowed To Feel

It's actually sickening how we still live in a world where some people think that it's a sign of weakness for a man to be emotional. We all have feelings, we all struggle. Make it normal to feel!!

Women aren't really allowed to feel their feelings, but in a different way than how men aren't. If we express how we feel or whatever, then we get told we are being irrational and overly emotional. Cue the, "Are you on your period?"

Hate to break it to you, but there are situations and relationships where the woman makes more money than the man, or where the man has wanted to be a stay-at-home dad all his life. Let's not judge, OK?

I guess having a purse is something to be envious of because now we have one place we can put all our things, even bigger things, without having to worry they're going to end up in the wash.
