It is most definitely easier to be a good-looking man than a woman. Maybe not in the woman's prime years, a good 10 years or so on average, but after that it becomes a real struggle being a woman. The keeping your body in shape and watching everything you eat, the glycolic acids and vitamin C, the retinol, the peels and scrubs, the supplements and creams, possibly the corrective work that is fillers and/or surgery, the carefully applied makeup and styled hair, the right clothes to hide flaws and bring attention to attributes (if any), the manicures and the pedicures... the list just goes on. And even with immense effort, an older woman will in many, many cases be replaced at first chance by a younger girl/woman. The struggle is absolutely real, even at my relatively young age. And I know the upkeep will only increase as I age.
