It's not normal for girls under the age of 25 to feel chronic fatigue. They have youthful bodies, high metabolisms, and live in a world that revolves around their education and social life. It's hardly a difficult life.
But women who are over 25, very very normal, due to the sexist tradition of maintaining an entire household with little help from the male spouse, while also holding down a full-time job or the majority of the childcare (when children are present). It's true that men do contribute more to domestic responsibilities than they did fifty years ago, but it's still no where near the amount that women do. With all of this extra responsibility comes extra fatigue.
Is it normal to be sick of women always saying theyre tired or sleepy?
