In my ethnicity, if you're female you are expected to look perfect. You have to be drop dead gorgeous, thin, wear sexy expensive designer clothes, have your nails done, have your hair perfect and look like a super model or they'll think you're a lesbian. Also if you're not married by 25-30 there is something wrong with you.

It's a lot of pressure.
With men, they're expected to show off machismo and be THE MAN or else they're labeled gay.
