The above is my best answer to the below, with the additional guess that models of what a woman can and should be are way more incoherent and self contradictory than mensPeople want too much, they want everything, but they can't have everything and they don't know what they want more, because they don't have good models for what to choose, so they can't choose, because the culture doesn't provide them these models
That's really quite desperately sad. If you had to guess why this was a particularly female phenomenon, what would you say?
I suppose it's one of those things that's equally good opinion-piece-fodder for progressives and conservatives: the former will say it's because feminism hasn't gone far enough, or that its gains have been reversed in recent decades, while the latter will say it's because the freedoms these girls' mothers and grandmothers fought for are making them miserable.

I don't think my anecdote shows better resilience no offense. And I don't think women are the sole or main ones producing these modelshmm. i think this means we are more resistant to the stubborn habit of recurrently thinking the identical. and better adapted to/resilient against what capital has mutilated human subjectivity. Or what have you

fairly sure Gus has never met a human being and gathers his information of them off of the internetThe bit about the race-faker is hilarious, I hadn't heard that one.
I get the sense from 70s discourse, films that psychoanalysis was a status symbol then. But for whatever reason, it doesn't feel that way to me now.
When I moved to New York from small town California one of the most striking things was that every girl I knew was either prescribed antidepressants + benzos, or else abused xannies recreationally. Often with copious drinking. If you know anything about drug combinations, these do not mix well. Frequent blackouts, reckless decision-making, unprotected sex. These were often the same girls that wanted to be hit and choked during their anonymous Tinder hookups. I found it really bleak and sad. They didn't know what they wanted; they didn't understand the structure of their desires; they found themselves constantly slipping into gender roles that bred self-contempt; they found themselves subsidizing behaviors that hurt them, etc.
Often, they have bad enough judgment / are confused enough that their relationships with their therapists become quite power-laden and problematic. They're advised to end relationships or cut out family members.
There's also a class of sensitive boy I know who has been fairly guarded his whole life, and sincerely wants to explore his emotions and his relationship to his parents or whatever. They aren't especially troubled; by most standards, well-adjusted; but they make good tech salaries and can easily afford it, and are curious, and end up find it rewarding for a time.
By this token millions of officially German citizens wouldn't be German either.Similarly I knew a guy who loved being german so much he spent hundreds of dollars on a real pair of liederhausen only to find out he also was no parts german
