A lot of younger people seem to idealize their partners. At 19 I was set on a pedestal by my then-boyfriend, like I was supposed to be some manic pixie dream girl free of any and all flaws. So when I started showing signs of being an actual human instead of the perfect doll he was imagining, he turned from love to resentment quick enough to make my head spin.
This is why I think it’s important for people to grow up seeing real girls/women. Could be moms, sisters, girls their age in the community. By real I mean people living real life, no makeup,no running somewhere else to fart, or not talking back for themselves.
Less and less the boys grow up seeing that, more and more they start to idolize women, and then have high expectations. Because all they have seen is from movies, TVs, internet.
lots of women would never want to be that way around anyone.
i have known women who dressed up w/ full make up to go to the drug story while they had the flu, because the could not bare the though of a random drug store cashier not seeing them at their best. and if you pointed out how miserable and stupid it all was, they would call you a asshole who had no pride in your appearance.
they also refused to admit they farted or pooped or anything human like that. and plenty of men are like that too.
