As I'm sure everyone knows, there are many double standards when it comes to men and women.
![]() Girl sleeps around=slut/smut/whore/hoe/hoebag (AND SO MUCH MORE! ![]() Guy sleeps around=pimp/player/playa/stud/"true" man/etc... Now, that's just cruel. ![]() Girls can hit guys all they want but a guy can never hit a girl. Not only is it not be fair for them to defend themselves (which it should be), it implies taht woman are infirior, less capable, and weaker. ![]() ![]() ![]() I was just wondering what you thought of these double standards. Also, if you can think of any more, post them. And we can reply our thoughts about those, too. ![]() ![]() |

You missed that completely. A double standard for men and women is how each gender perceives and handles disrespect. A straight male calls a girl a "bitch" and anyone with half a brain knows that he needs to get popped in the mouth. But yet, an overly feminine and flamboyant gay guy will say the same thing and its no big deal. Then you have girls that jovially call each other bitches and sluts likes its not a big deal.
I think homosexuality is gross but I don't say that to slight someone who is. The thought of being near another guy in such an intimate manner really bothers me. Am I a homophobe? Not at all. My uncle's gay and one of my closest friends are. I'm not obsessed with lesbians and I'm not pressuring my girlfriend to go bi, but there is a certain sensuality and a level of eroticism with two girls kissing (like in your sig) that straight couples rarely obtain. So many double standards to tackle, so little time. |
