24 Interesting Comics Depicting An Honest Illustration Of The Pressures Women Face From Society

When more and more people follow the same standard, it becomes a societal expectation that is mutually and openly agreed upon without the necessity of a law. Men should not show emotions, and women should apply makeup—these are two widely held beliefs that can be found everywhere.

However, we are all unique, and these "expectations" do not accurately describe the vast majority of people. As a result, artist Lainey Molnar focuses on these issues in her comics, which are relatable to the majority of people, particularly women.

Having said that, Lainey's work has previously been featured on various social media platforms. In addition to her comic illustrations, Lainey recently began posting short videos about being a woman, relationships, and identity, and she loves them.

She is determined to go even deeper in order to help women all over the world. So many women are chastised or shunned by society for not meeting the "right" milestones, whether they are meeting them at the wrong time or having completely different plans than what is expected.

Lainey's goal is to remove the burden of societal stigma from every woman's shoulders because personal life decisions that do not harm others are neither right nor wrong; they are purely personal. If you want to see some of the best works from Lainey, you've come to the right place.
