I really dislike the idea of gender norms and I think it’s incredibly sexist and one gender shouldn’t be confined in a box or norm because of their sex, but like I just sometimes think men are biologically stronger than women so isn’t the gender expectation of them being stronger is valid

Like if you have a fight between a man and a woman who are both trained by the same coach and same training time basically equal preparation for the fight isn’t expecting the man to win is valid because of the biological difference and that sets a gender norm which is sexist?

I just don’t understand and confused :(

So I committed to UC Berkeley and I thought I would feel more comfortable or certain with my decision but at the same time I still don't know if I should go it's a really great opportunity and the best school I got into but I am really scared to travel and also connect with people that probably have islamaphobia and I am scared I wouldn't find any friends. I know I have to go and eventually try to overcome my fear but I really don't know but pros of staying here is I am probably going to standout if I go to a mid college and also my country is safer and more convenient to live in and I wouldn't have to use communal bathrooms and I would not have to stress about not being with people I don't know and don't understand the way they live, and I also found out I have to pay an extra $196 for the BWA exam since my dumba$$ didn't take any AP’s so that's another con for studying at UC Berkeley

It's just sometimes I feel like I would be happy If I stay home but would compare myself to others who went to great colleges abroad and I got into UC Berkeley WTH I should be happy
