Men aren't judged as harshly. They can be ugly as sin and believe they are God's gift. Men's "worth" increases with age. And in most personal and professional fields men's "worth" increases with decreases in aesthetic value. They are taken more seriously in many realms and led to believe they will find a life partner regardless. There are a few commercials that cast pretty women and average (or ugly) and older men to highlight how the pressure to look good tends to be on the woman whereas the pressure to be smart and successful is usually on the man. There is one commercial in particular that gets on my nerves.
