Whose experience is this:
“My father always tried to encourage me to be strong, play sports, and do things that girls were not supposedly good at doing, like working on carpentry, for example, I tried my best to meet my father’s expectations, but I often failed.

I really enjoyed watching sports, but I was afraid to even try to get on teams in middle school because I was setting myself up for failure.”
