Women might feel the need to "compensate" for their faces and overall bodies but there's no dick equivalent. A flat chested cutie will still be many people's cup of tea, but no one prefers a micropenis. I'm not sure the people who buy the big American trucks have small penises necessarily, they might just be overall insecure and need a very visible sign of status.

Wist i do agree the particular stereotype is a bit scathing, I think it is withheld discussing bodily insecurities.

I do think it's more diverse in women as the don't focus on this one aspect, in disregard for about everything, which is often the male problem.

Posturing and peacocking is however important. I think that a lot is body related with indieners paddling makeup, fillers and stuff like that.

Aside from that there's not a simple set of items that define 'the successful woman' like expensive watches, fast cars ed. are for men.

But for most (and both sexes) the appearance of a successful relationship, a beautiful home, holidays and activities in line with their life philosophy seem prevalent in social media.

The appearance being the operative word, as it's often more important than reality.

I mean, when women have small breasts they usually just buy larger breasts, it's a lot easier for them to change that aspect than men.

How do they compensate if they can't afford it themselves and really want it done? They usually get a man to pay for it.
