"男性が大胆なジェスチャーを試みると、一般的にそれはロマンチックと見なされます。女性がそれをすると、多くの場合、必死と見なされます。"
— Sarah Jessica Parker

Simplified Meaning:
When a man does something daring or brave to show his love, people usually think it's sweet or romantic. For example, if a man surprises his partner with a big, unexpected proposal in front of a crowd, most people will think it's a loving and grand gesture. On the other hand, if a woman does something similar, like planning a grand surprise or expressing her feelings in a big way, people often think she is trying too hard or is desperate for attention. This shows that society judges men and women differently, even when they do the same things. The advice here is to recognize these unfair judgments and try to be more understanding and supportive of everyone’s efforts to show love and care, regardless of their gender.
