I think this information would help a lot of you so here it is.

You have to know the grass is always greener. Women might feel men have it easy because of their physical advantages like not going through mensturation, pregnancy and having higher testosterone which practically makes them stronger in a physical standpoint. Women sometimes don't feel safe going anywhere alone at night while men don't even think about it. While men might also feel women have it better because of the societal preassure that most men have on them to not express their emotions. What was the last time you saw your dad cry? Expressing emotion is an important human feature that has been stripped from most men even if it is infront of their best of friends/ most loving family members. Men face loneliness, depression, more preassure to become successful than women because it is frowned upon men if their wives earn more than them.

In a nutshell we as a society really need to evolve from segregatting everyone through gender and trying to determine who has it worse and just accept that every gender has their own struggles and we should just come as one as humanbeings to help each other instead of bringing each other down.

Im Indian 6'2 for refrence. And recently started uni in london. The difference in terms of how tall I feel in both countries is actually insane. Well ofcourse because average male height in India is 165 and in the UK it's 175cm. But that difference feels like a lot. In India, I genuinly feel like a giant. And I dont even think I'm that tall! But whenever I meet someone new in India the first question even before asking for my name is always, "what is your height?". I can often go a full week without seeing someone taller than me.

Meanwhile in the UK, I'm still tall but I dont feel like a giant yk? Im still the tallest guy in my class (except for one 6'6 guy), but no one really notices it. There are a lot of people who are the same height as me or just 1-3 inches shorter. It's insane. And the amount of times foreigners say that I'm really tall for an Indian is insane.

Has any of you felt the same while moving countries? Share your thoughts!

TLDR: Feel like a giant in India, still feel tall in the UK just not a giant.
