Photos To Illustrate The Struggles All Females Go Through
Some days you get out of bed after only hitting snooze once so you have time to do your hair and makeup and pick out a nice outfit, other days you decide sleep is more important and you'll go to class looking vaguely homeless-chic. Both are acceptable choices because being a girl is hard enough on a daily basis and you don't need to make it more complicated for yourself.
While every girl's routine is different, there are some struggles that pretty much every woman can relate to and get a good laugh from.
No One Has To Know
Why would we shave our entire leg, wasting both time and water in the shower, if we could only shave part of our leg and still look just as put together?
Shattering Your Compact And Your Dreams
Whether you drop it into the toilet or drop it onto the floor and watch that brand new Hoola matte bronzer shatter into a million pieces, there is nothing like the devastation that comes with destroying makeup that costs you half a paycheck to buy.
Russian Roulette
Having a hair elastic that looks like this is a constant game of chance. You never know when it's going to break, but you know that it's going to be at the most inconvenient time, which is why you should always have a spare.
The Ultimate Betrayal
You haven't experienced heartbreak until you open up your makeup bag to find out your foundation exploded all over while you were on your flight and now every brush you have is covered in Mac Studio Fix.
Pay The Money, Leave Your Eyebrows To The Professionals
There's so much upkeep that comes with being a girl and it adds up every month. So every once in a while you make the decision that you're going to buy "at-home" hair dye or waxing kits, but then something like this happens and you remember why you pay a professional.
The Price Is The Least Of Your Worries
You truly never know what to expect when it comes to women's clothing. You find a cute jean jacket, go to try it on and realize there's a heavily detailed embroidered unicorn on the back of it and you're not an 11-year-old so there goes that jacket.
Talk About Baggage
The problem with carrying around a purse is that you end up carrying around way more than you would if you didn't have a purse, simply because you can. You keep storing things in your purse for the day, but then suddenly it's been a year, you still haven't cleaned out your purse, and it has three water bottles, two umbrellas, and 60 pens in it.
Instagram Vs Reality
Pretty much nothing you see on social media is what it's actually like for girls when it comes to their beauty routine, or really anything to do with our daily lives. We're just out here tryna do our best.
It's A Real Shot To Your Self-Esteem
Basically every woman ever has gone through this. Men say they prefer "natural women" (whatever that means) and your boyfriend constantly complains about how long it takes you to get ready before going out to dinner, yet the day you decide to not a wear makeup is also the day that three coworkers ask if you've caught that flu bug that was going around.
Do You Agree To A Thorough Background Check?
You're kidding yourself if you think that the girl you're going on a first date with doesn't already know the names of all of your siblings, where your first job was, and what your childhood bedroom looks like. She spent hours meticulously combing through your social media to make sure you probably aren't a murderer.
Maybe Just Look Somewhere Else?
Of all the things that are happening in the world today, how is a bra strap still the one thing that gets people so fired up? It's not like it's a surprise that women wear bras?
Aim Low To Avoid Expectations
How are women supposed to live up to the beauty expectations being set when it's physically impossible for us to have that jaw line? We're being set up for disappointment.
High Fashion, High Pain Tolerance
Keeping up with fashion trends and all the latest lewks can take a toll on your body. Yeah sure, you want to rock that sleek ponytail, but you're going to get a migraine two hours into it and then what?
Beauty Knows No Pain
If you're a woman who keeps her nails long or regularly gets her nails done, that comes with a whole host of other problems. Typing, pressing buttons, opening things in general, it all becomes a lot more complicated.
Betrayal In The Highest Form
No one ever talks about what good quality women's clothing is because they'd be lying, and this is proof of that. Jeans frequently betray us in our time of need, and it's always in inconvenient places like the thighs.
Lather, Rinse, Repeat, Take All My Money
Has anyone ever finished a bottle of shampoo and conditioner at the same time? If so, we want to talk to them about the sorcery they're committing. Why do they continue to make the bottles the same size?
One Eye Rub Could Ruin It All
Wearing makeup is so much work, not because of the application, but because you have to remember you're wearing it. You have to take it off before you shower, you can't rub your eyes all day — it's really not worth the effort.
Rose-Colored Glasses
Some sort of voodoo magic always happens right before you wash your hair. You already pushed it a day or two past what you probably should have so you decide it's time to wash your hair, but then as you're about to get in the shower it looks great and you end up pushing it one more day.
Hooked On A Feeling, And Everything Else
No matter how long or how short your hair is, there's always a way to get it caught in something. Whether it's because of the zipper on your coat or the hinge in the door, most women have managed to rip out of a chunk of their own hair after it got stuck in something.
Here Comes The Sun, But Not Your Glasses
All you wanted was a fun day at the beach where you snapped a pic for the gram of you with some fun beachy waves, but then your sunglasses have to come along and ruin everything by getting stuck 0.342 seconds after you put them on your head.
