am a cis bloke, so take my uninformed opinion with a grain of salt, (giving uninformed opinions is part of white cis man culture). but aesthetic standards are much higher for women than men.
to be a woman is a fulltime performance with constant judgements. while a man can be a slob and is still a man.
to pass as a woman, the standards are much higher than passing as a man.
the "Splashback effect" is a term I made up,. wouldn't be surprised if there's an actual term for that for which I'm unaware.
