Men Face Heavy Gender Bias Too
If you thought women were the only ones that have a heavy burden when it comes to living up to societal standards, you'll be shocked to learn that men are under a great deal of pressure as well.

If you haven't yet seen Miss Representation, you can find it on Netflix, or rent it from YouTube:
