For both genders it's pretty hard, but I think each gender has a different type of social pressure affecting them and that's why it seems so easy. Guys are suppose to be dominate and avoid showing emotion which can be mistaken for confidence and allow certain things to be done with ease and girls are suppose to be dainty and passive so they're coddled and taken care of more often. We often don't recognize this because we only see in context of our own experiences.

tldr; Both genders are just different, neither of them has it easier
