“I’m not like other women” – not just an excessive overestimation of one’s own individuality, but also a denigration of one’s own self: not as beautiful, not as thin. Especially as a woman, you’re confronted with being judged from a young age: the male gaze, being desired, is the most important currency of all. If attention and recognition from men are the highest good for a woman, then she’s often labeled a “pick me girl.”
