Gender Expression: The Good, the Bad, and the In-Between

Anonymous / 2024-02-02

In my opinion, all the worst parts about being a woman don't actually have anything to do with physically or mentally being a woman. Instead it's all of the expectations, stereotypes and restrictive laws men force on us that make it a negative experience. This artwork that I did for Gender Studies class shows how suffocating gendered expectations (particularly focusing on expression) are for each person, this art piece singling out my personal experience with it, as a cis female teenager.
