Guys have it worse than women since even low status men with no realistic hope of ascending are pressured and scrutinized for not holding up to societal expectations. Every incel has been on the receiving end of said scrutiny. Male and female normalfags alike will remind failed men of their low social status even if they've never partaken in wooing women and are engaging harmless hobbies away from other people.
Meanwhile, failed women aren't scrutinized and even get coddled with cause no one expects much from women to begin with. Even so, there are more men who fail to live up to the baseline expectation expected from men than viceversa. It's a harsh world.

today i saw a female twitch streamer who seemed like a normal girl, not a titty streamer, but here rule said something along "no sexism or other small dick energy behavior". so they'll say no sexism while engaging in sexism and just blanket putting people down and it's completely normal, nobody bats an eye.

the scrutiny men face is real. it shouldn't be dismissed. but the framing that women escape social pressure and expectation doesn't hold up.
women's baseline expectations aren't lower, they're different, and in many ways more invasive. a woman's worth is tied relentlessly to her body, her youth, her softness, her availability. the scrutiny is constant and physical. she is evaluated walking to her car. by strangers. by family members. by other women. there's no "opting out" into harmless hobbies that insulates her from it.
"failed women" absolutely exist and are not coddled. they're called crazy, bitter, unlovable, unfuckable, past their prime. a woman who is too loud, too ambitious, too sexual, not sexual enough, too old, too fat, or too mentally ill doesn't get compassion. she gets abandoned or mocked just as efficiently as any low-status man.
the deeper problem is that you're comparing male and female failure states as if they're parallel tracks. they aren't. men are expected to perform. women are expected to be. failing to perform is humiliating. but failing to simply be the right thing, which you can't fully control, is its own particular cruelty.
competing over who has it worse doesn't actually relieve anyone's suffering. when you dismiss someone else's experience to protect your own, you're not proving anything except that you need validation more than truth. real suffering doesn't require someone else's to be smaller. if you've ever felt dismissed, you already know exactly how it feels, so it's worth asking why you'd do it to someone else.
both are real. neither cancels the other out.

at some point you have to take matters into your own hands. if you need external pressure to succeed, you will fail anyway because extrinsic motivation is a very weak force and as soon as it disappears you sink back into your comfortable sludge creature life
