Women and men are both 'expected' to do a lot of various things. I think the main issue is that the average man doesn't care, while the average woman does care and adheres to the expectations.

I see this happen so often with women. They keep following some stupid, made up rules, and then complain about it afterwards. Whereas men will just ignore them. Of course, there are many women who don't have this problem, and many men who do.

It should be noted that affected people are not at fault here. Nobody chooses what personality they are born with. In many cases this is actually a positive trait. So perhaps the core issue is society abusing this characteristic.
