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. ![]() ![]() |

It was directed at the topic in general.
Any group that's looking for a scapegoat: men, women, whites, blacks, Jews, handicapped, etc, loses my respect instantly. One look at the sheer volume of success stories and triumphs over these so-called double standards should be proof enough that recognizing them in a topic of their own is unnecessary. In the big scope of problems, if a few shallow, boorish comments such as 'slut' and 'hoebag' can knock you down in terms of self-worth, then you'll never get anywhere in life. CEO of HP-Compaq Carly Fiorina was constantly beaten as a child and is today one of the only female CEOs in major business. So before you go labeling me a sexist, understand the point of my post. The point is that despite a lightweight double standard, women, and men, and whites, blacks, and Jews for that matter, can ignore/disprove them. On the contrary, bickering about them in an isolated topic wastes everyone's time. |
