Is there such a thing as "little woman syndrome"?

As in, we all know "little man syndrome".

That's what it is.

But can the same apply to women?

I assume little man syndrome is born out of a sense of inferiority, inferiority complex and associated frustration?

In men I get that of course as male culture is so much about the idea of "dominance" which often involves physical imposition.

Naturally a little (no pun) frustration could come about when there's a predisposed disadvantage as such.

But in women, is there something analogous?

I think there is.

Despite female culture apparently not being about physical imposition and ideas of dominance, I have to say in women of lesser stature, attitude wise it's not terribly uncommon to have that overarching impetus to rather emphatically assert oneself, make ones presence felt in an "overcompensation" kind of way?

Kind of bizarre considering again feminine culture seems to largely prioritize conventional female characteristics, so that kind of "little Hitler" thing does catch me by surprise from time to time;

That resolute conviction toward authoritarianism, when it's coming from a woman whose head is at about the correct height for me to rest my pint glass on, I can't think of the ideal definition for it just now but....... what I'm saying is it's just not what one would expect, at least I wouldn't.

Is it just me?

Get some help. Hugs.

I don't believe so, it seems to be a trait specific to (probably white) men. However, I've believe the female comparison is something along the lines of "she has something to prove..." or something like that. Or daddy issues. One of them.
