Boys vs. Girls

Boys have everything easy. They get the comfy clothes, they aren't easy targets for insults, they don't have to push babies out of their bodies, and they don't have to deal with all the insecurities that girls deal with. And relationships. Boys get it so easy in relationships. It's easy to make their girlfriends happy, all they have to do is give her flowers when she's angry or tell her she's beautiful or that he loves her. Girls have to do research to find nice things to do for their boyfriends. Boys don't want flowers or candy or to be told they're beautiful. They don't care. Boys don't have opinions.My sister told me that I was a bad girlfriend because I don't do nice things for my boyfriend, and he does everything nice for me. But seriously, is that my fault? I don't think that he likes me any less because I don't do 'nice things'. But now I feel bad. I want to do nice things. I want to show that I care about him. But the problem is, boys don't have opinions. Anytime a guy is asked what he likes to do or what he wants he's like 'i don't know, whatever.' Really great input. It's unfair. I could give you a detailed list of the things that I like to do and want to do.They have it easy, no stress. And again, they get the comfy clothes. Why is it that boy sweatshirts and sweatpants are that much softer and cozier than girls?Girls are easily labeled. If a boy were to sleep with ten girls, he'd get a pat on the back. But God forbid that a girl wears a low cut shirt. Then she's a slut. Where is the sense in that?! So girls are that much more insecure. We don't want to be labeled. We don't want to be seen in negative ways. We don't want to be told that our hair looks bad or we're not good enough. If a boy were to be told that his hair looks bad, he'd shrug it off and say okay and go back to whatever he was doing. It's nonsense.
I think that the trend should change. I think that it should be acceptable for a boy to say what he really wants, to talk about his feelings. It sounds dumb, but that would make it easier for girls who want to understand guys better. They say girls are confusing, but they are just as bad, they just don't put effort into it.
And don't even get me started on the baby thing.
