Yes! At a certain point (like, say, it being your protagonist's primary motive) not addressing cultural pressure and gender bias becomes refusing to address them.

Refusing to address the roots of an issue ends up pushing the blame for a societal problem onto the character personally, which is cringily unpleasant. Especially so for people - like most women - who have experienced that shift personally. (lots of people prefer to blame individual women for things that are the fault of sexism!) It's relatable in a highly DO NOT WANT kind of way.
