MODERATORS
Not a woman, so I could be full of shit. It does seem to me that women face much more pressure to be conventionally attractive, especially in image-intensive jobs like acting.
Very true, and already-attractive women started being told how pretty they were while they were younger so it became part of their identity and sense of self-worth. So they're vulnerable to the fear of "losing their looks."
Maybe a bit like kids being told they are "smart" and "gifted" turns a lot of them into workaholics with a fear of skill-based failure.and coping mechanisms around that.
