Yes, it’s a rumor that a boy’s life is easy. I have heard lots of people (mostly girls) saying” you are a boy. Your life is so easy, you can do whatever you want.
There are many difficult jobs in this world. One of those jobs is being a boy. People think that if he is a boy, he must be very happy, he can do anything if he wants.
No one is going to stop him of his own free will. But only a boy can know how easy his life is. From the time a boy is born, a feast of Expectations and Responsibilities is given to him. Boys are taught from childhood that they cannot cry. If you cry, the world will laugh and say that a boy is crying. No matter how much pain there is in the life of boys, they always keep a smile on their faces. So that no one can know their pain.
When women get pregnant and when their family came to know that the baby is a boy, so in this case, they have more expectations from the boy. From our birth, we are taught that we should be strong, take our family forward, and earn more than others. Under this heavy bunch of expectations, we have to run for fulfilling the goals of families. No one asks us, what we want to be? what do we want to do with our lives? Thus, a writer, a singer, a cricketer, a photographer gets stuck in 10–7 jobs and we are supported to be strong even if our lives are not our own. Nice bullshit!!!

A boy when he is in growing age is burdened with responsibilities. He has no other choice but to earn because there is a family who is dependent on him. The day of the average Indian man starts with expectations. Time has changed so man is expected to share hands in household chores. He drops children's school and then goes to the office. Office work is very hectic everyone knows, it’s not easy to handle things. Then he comes back with expectations that he will become with a smiling face. He has to do that and again the household chores, play with kids, discuss with them. Ask a married man about his weekend he will tell that his life is nowhere. He lives for others and if you ask him what he wanted to do I bet most of them won’t be able to answer.

Boys get cheated, boys go through heartbreaks. Those sleepless nights, silent crying, sad songs, we go through all these and sometimes get completely broken. But no no no, we can’t break down in front of others. Only those sleepless nights know the truth behind our easy Life. Besides all this, we always face the world with a smile. Only we know about the burden of expectations of all. Our fucked up lives, those storms of thoughts running 24/7 inside our minds, and that feeling of dying inside. There are two aspects of everything: the good and the bad, by this I mean that not all boys are the same in terms of feelings. So, treat boys nicely because there are good boys out there too. Not all are behind your body. Boys are emotional and they want warmth, care & appreciation too. So, think about it. Thank you from a boy having a not easy life.
