Double Standards, Men vs. Women Options

[rOckThISshYt]

As I'm sure everyone knows, there are many double standards when it comes to men and women. The most obvious and known one is:

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. I don't even think men should sleep around. But there are many more double standards than that, too. I mean, there are some unfair ones when it comes to men, too.

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. Honestly, a lot of them time we are. But that's just natural because men have hormones that make them build muscle much easier than us chicas. Now, I'm not saying that if we go full force at men they should pound this sh!t out of us. But I do think they should be aloud to maybe slap us back. Not hard. But it's only fair. (Not in a relationship, though, because it's known that the woman have more power. )


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. Just... er.... yeah. reply.

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.

Actually, I'd like it to be known that I do not get offended by personal attacks. That can be proven by seven people who whitnessed something yesterday. This girl was trying to bash me and i was doing it back and laughing my ass off with my friends and she was getting pissed and then wanted to fight me. I smiled at her and luaghed because she's so petty that she would make such a big deal out of nothing. So no, I do not get offended by things so petty.

It's not the words that offend me. It's the fact that we can't get as far as some men because of our gender. I don't mean in all cases. I mean, look at Opera (or however you spell her name). She's one of the richest people in the country. But, in a lot of cases, it is. You might not be able to realize it because you might be on of our future men allowing such things. I mean, look at some of the people's examples. It's obvious that this is because of double-standards and disgrimination towards females. The fact is, since "the dawn of time" men have been looked at as supiorer towards women. I highly doubt that's ever going to change. This disgrimination brings double-standards into play. I and other girls have given this topic examples. I don't know if you read them or not, but you would learn from reading them or talk to some women. The majority of women you talk to would probably say at one point in their lives they've been a victim of double-standards.


Also, if you didn't notice, I wasn't only talking about women. I wasn't only looking for things on my side. As a bisexual female, I can tell you from experiance that many guys definatly like that kind of thing. A lot. I have been asked to hook up with guy's girlfriends and hook up with girls in front of them and all that stuff. And the same men that love that kind of thing will hate gay males (some, anyway). And even though that doesn't affect me personally, I still hate that and disagree with it. So I'm not looking for pitty. I'm just making a valid topic that you can't accept. Although, I'm not too sure why.
