Societal pressures and expectations play a significant role in perpetuating the need to constantly portray a "strong girl" image. Gender stereotypes often dictate that women should be resilient, self-sufficient, and emotionally composed at all times. This expectation can lead to the suppression of vulnerability and authentic emotions, as individuals feel compelled to conform to societal norms. Challenging these expectations involves promoting diverse representations of strength and femininity, encouraging open conversations about mental health and emotions, and fostering a culture of acceptance and support. By dismantling rigid gender norms and embracing vulnerability as a strength, individuals can challenge the unrealistic standards imposed by society.
