The infantilisation of women in their early 20s and whether they should marry early, is mainly done by women in their 30s annoyed that men their own age prefer young, pretty, and yes maybe even dumb, young women rather than old women who are always trying to compete with them.
Men experience less role conflict in their pursuit of career success and accolades because the same endeavours that guarantee financial security also bolster their sexual value.
For women, career success is often unrelated to, if not a detriment to, sexual value. A successful woman understands and manages this dissonance with grace and clarity.
The unstated plea from feminism is a desire for release from this dissonance. Every woman openly typing #girlboss subconsciously wishes for a chad prince to carry her away so she can bake bread and play with babies without retribution from society.
Careers are generally a security measure and pastime for most women. They are a primary objective and perhaps even sacred life mission for most men.
