Women should not be oppressed by appearance anxiety

I was instilled by my mother since I was a child that girls should not be too strong, dress up beautifully, and find a rich man to marry in the future. But I never listen to my mom because I know my mom has no ill intentions, she just spoke out about a part of the society she saw. I failed the college entrance examination and wanted to repeat my studies. The whole family, except my father, opposed it, thinking that it would be enough for me to read two books. But I don't, I know I'm more than that. Just take the train to another city with better high school education and sign up for repeat studies. The college entrance examination is more than 40 points higher than the original, and 60 points higher than the first line, which is enough for the last 985. Now my mom is still "disappointed" with me, she thinks I'm not pretty enough. I didn't notice anything before, but in the past few days, I suddenly realized why girls are more worried about their appearance than boys? Why is a man who is not good-looking but knowledgeable can stand on a bigger stage with confidence, while a girl of the same standard will be laughed at for being ugly? Women should not only fight for rights, but also break the traditional concept of society and fight!
