Beautiful womens’ lives are alike because all of their lives are exceedingly easy

There's a whole chapter in The Pale King about exactly what you're looking for, OP. One of my favorite parts of that book.

I would hope that my daughter's were ugly so that they might be forced to develop character.

I hope my sons were beautiful so that I might ravage their boipussies

But difficulty is relative. qts struggle too anon. Sometimes losers get the wrong idea, the hot, fit, lit, entrepreneur you’re into is interested in you, but so is everyone else.

>including that one creepy faggot in the back of the cafe reading Joyce who keeps looking up at you and looking away, thinking you don’t realize he’s reading scat erotica while lusting after you.

Nope being a dude is cool sometimes. Especially when you get to be a girl too.

Women have it so easy in life. They literally just have to pick one of the hundreds of men that are flirting with them and pick the richest one and get married. Men literally have to slave night and day to make money in order to even take them out to dates.

>For males. it's a gradual process of things getting better. It's the opposite for women. If you've ever read Flowers For Algernon. you'll understand the horror of being a woman hitting The Wall. In the story. a mentally retarded man undergoes a medical procedure that gives him superhuman intelligence. For a while. he lives as a genius. But then the procedure starts to reverse. and he slowly. helplessly. regresses back into a retard.

>That is what it must be like to be a 30 year old woman. She starts life as a young girl girl. hits puberty. and is suddenly treated like God's gift to the world. Everyone laughs at her jokes. people hang on her every word. doors are held and drinks bought for her.

>But then. as she enters her late 20's. things start to change... Her youth starts to fade and with it goes the attention. The social priority. The sense of value. She clings to it. desperately. Resents the younger women around her and the men whose glances, little by little stop falling upon her. Maybe she even doubles down and tries to maintain the carefree party of being a 20-something girl in a big city. But she's 30 now. And the drinks and the nights aren't quite as exciting as they once were. so she nods off early. And one by one. her BFFs got off the subway. so now she rides alone. The tinder date never showed up. so she just got a pizza. But like her rapidly fading youth. it's slowly sliding away. It hasn't quite touched the floor yet. it's still separated by some wax paper. But at this point. is it worth saving?

I don't understand why people want to lift the minor struggles of women up as if they were the same as the major struggles of men...or the major struggles of other less fortunate women!

These things aren't all equal and trying to make it sound that way is just what fools do to sound like they are capable sophisticated thinking.

Exactly, if you already have a shitty life, being pretty will make it worse. All it will get you is a bunch of men trying to manipulate and abuse you before you are mature enough to know what is going on. A lot of really pretty girls end up addicted to drugs or in the sex industry where as their less pretty counterparts just work in service jobs. God, being a woman sucks.

most women you think of as "hot" are basically kids. Think about the mistakes you made between the ages of 16 to 22?You don't know jack shit. Especially if you grow up in the ghetto. Why not hold the 40 year old pimps who exploit them responsible? They are the ones with choices in life. They are the ones that should know better.

Honestly, the "ease" with which so-called beautiful women live is an illusory sort of ease. Especially today, women are increasingly trapped in a kind of toxic, social media aestheticism. It's an easy rise up the social ladder, but it's an illusory ladder, at the top of which is nothing. This sort of life is obviously open to beautiful men as well. But the force of this illusion, of this aesthicism in men, is much weaker than in the case of women because it is fuelled by female rapaciousness rather than male rapaciousness, which is the more abundant sexual power.

But this illusory status that these women achieve is not solely the result of male rapaciousness, but most surprisingly male jealousy. This is the unacknowledged cause of the disproportionate number of male-to-female transgender persons. Some men, usually those that fail to achieve the masculine ideal, see these women and are struck with such jealousy, at their apparently "easy lives", that they want to become such women. They wish their own lives were so easy. But not only that: most disturbingly, these men want to become not any women, not even just beautiful women, but OBJECTIFIED women. They want to be stared at, desired, thrown about, penetrated, violated, trampled, extinguished--and by who? Their male betters, the so-called "Chads" that actually lived up to the masculine ideal and are not mere spectators in this uniquely 21st-century aestheticism.

So what can we conclude of men that want to know, feel, become beautiful women? That they want to be penetrated by their male betters. That is to say, that OP is a faggot.

Author looks cute

Madame Bovary.
Where Emma had romance novels, the modern woman has social media perverting her idea of happiness. Where Emma had a few suitors waxing poetic to her beauty, the modern woman has dozens or even hundreds.
The empty life Emma lead was identical in spirit to that of a beautiful woman today, but the magnitude of her degeneracy was less due to the excesses of the digital/post-industrial world.

>>12538400
>men are obsessed and jelly or something
no, it's mostly of women's own making.
much like how the beauty consumer base is 90%+ female and then the rest is gay males. it's not hetero men forcing women to become cake faces.

much like how some males love the imaginary conquest effect of the video game world, with males playing things like league of legends and fortnite for millions upon millions upon millions of hours, girls fucking love getting likes and shares for their selfies and ass-shots

it's selfish addiction, not a sex vs sex war

>So what can we conclude of men that want to know, feel, become beautiful women? they want to be penetrated by their male betters. That is to say, that OP is a faggot.
that you came to this bizarre conclusion after the male obsession does make me think you're a femcel lesbian or a repressed homo male

>>12538400
I'm not a homo I'm just curious to see if beautiful womens' lives really are as easy as they seem to be and what those lives would be like. Like what would they fill their days with? How do they interact with people? What sort of things would they consider problems in their lives? What sort of conflict could they encounter in their lives, if any?

Men overestimate how much women want sex. they project their own desires onto us.You don't even consider the fact that we might not even be straight. Most women just want security, and being beautiful doesn't guarantee that.

There is a reason women are paid less than men in every industry but porn. Ask yourself this: is that a secure job?

Being cute doesn't grantee an easy life at all.

Don’t know what this even refers to.

>“In most high schools, you learn social things along with the rest of it. In mine, I learned irrevocably that beauty is power and the usual bastions of power are powerlessness when confronted by beauty. Most of us, even though we were ignored by these girls, were on the girls’ side and wanted them to succeed. To have one of them in a class made life much more interesting, since they never became quite tame, and a teacher trying to explain that success depended on practice, diligence, sincerity, and going to bed early was flagrantly and silently contradicted by the girl sitting in the third row, second seat, who would be staring out the window or at the clock.”
