Springrain, I agree with you and if you note I said "in my experience". This has been my experience with alot of women, but it is not to say that there aren't women out there with real problems. I was not trying to make a generalization about "all" women, and I apologize if it came off that way. My point with what I said is that you can't take the fact that a woman says "I'm fat" (example) has low self-esteem.
It all basically boils down to a choice of whether you will love yourself, excepting all flawes. This can be equally as hard for both sexes. Speaking from a man's point of view, there are just as many "media standards" out there for us. There are male models, same as female. There are also things we are so many times judged by which are material possessions, success, popularity, etc.
Low self-esteem is equally manifested in both sexes, and I don't think one has it more than the other, and I don't believe it accurate to say that women experience it more than men, men maybe just hide it better.
