Not sure who needs to hear this today, but someone needs to hear this today. Recent research from Ilona Jerabek found that 67% of Gen Z women are only satisfied when a task is done perfectly, and a whopping 71% of Gen Y women feel that way. It’s a duality that causes so much stress: there’s a constant battle waging between what women want to be, and what they feel pressure to be.
Lost in this battle is the opportunity to do things just because you like them (even if you’re bad at them). If you’re looking for someone to support you in pursuit of joy over perfection, we’re here for you. Go out there and run a slow marathon. Bake a cake that fails to rise, but tastes delicious. Give in to the luxury of playing mini golf, badly, with your friends.
And take your birth control!
