Double Standards
 

They are there, at least I believe so. For example, guys can be heavy weight wise, no problem. A women gains weight and she is considered fat. Here's another one, people are more relaxed with boys than girls. I don't know how many times I heard growing up, how it was different...I was a girl! LOL

Boys and girls, men and women. What double standards can you think of? Should they exist?

Guys are studs and girls are sluts... lame!

Yep, I have heard that one before.

Double standards - Suck! But yes you are absolutely right. I noticed the same thing yesterday with bjufs thread about some girl being a slut. It's mindblowing.

Equal rights are cool as long it means both sexes are bound by them, which isn't the case.
Usually equal rights mean that men should do the dishes, but women aren't supposed to fix the car or mow the lawn.

I always say "what's good for the goose is good for the gander" :winkwink:

That works both ways, I find woman do like to be treated as "equal" mostly when its to their advantage...

what he said.

Sometimes there is reason to have double standards, it may be hard to stomach but guys and girls are different. One has a penis and one doesn't;)

Oh for sure! Then again, I'm physically attracted to larger men and I'd rather be a lot leaner than I am so I guess I have the double standard also.

I've heard guys don't mind female strippers at parties but frown upon male ones too ;)

where did you ever hear that ? :1orglaugh

Male strippers are HOT.

not sure if these constitute double standard but the saying 'it's a man's world' and 'the boys club' and the whole glass ceiling thing really bug me.

when men get gray hair it makes them look distinguished, woman with gray hiar are ust called old.

But is it really a mans world? At least within this industry, I see women have huge advantages:)

HEY, its the men in this industry who are supposed to have the "HUGE ADVANTAGES" :Graucho or is it appendages :Oh crap

After this past weekend, I would have to go with appendages:)

There you go.

This thread is GREAT! Heheheheheheh! Keep'em coming! :winkwink:

They are equal until the bill for the wine and steak come.

stroke it baby, STROKE IT :pimp

That one is a real pisser!


Also, men in control are hot but women in control are bitches.

Double standards... ok. But the examples at hand make zero sense. You have to look at the wide picture. Guys are studs when they achieve sexual relations with multiple partners, because it is not so easy for guys. With chicks, they can run outside and yell "FREE PUSSY" and they will have guys all over them. So when a chick gives it up to multiple partners, there is no achievement there... she is just being easy. I grew up with 2 brothers, and my mother told me she was glad because girls were worse than boys... this is true. Especially for those girls that put a price on their bodies... this only proves that as you were growing up, either your daddy or his friends, maybe even a neighbor has done things with you and gave you money or items of value as hush payment, thus making you grow up believing guys will pay for your drinks and food and jewels etc. That is why you are sluts and we are studs.

And, in the other example... I happen to like fat chicks... but I would never fuck a fat guy. But for a few bucks or a nice dinner or a necklace... I know many girls who would.

Chicks are cool.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh
Women have their faults. Men have only two. Everything they say and everything they do.

LOL.. I know that's not what you meant, but I couldn't resist :winkwink:

Things are a-changing in the new millenium, fat guys are not considered sexy at least not to me and most of my friends. Not saying that fat guys can't be sexy, there are some out there that can be, but most aren't. Like "chubby" is okay but really obese guys just like nasty. And most gray haired guys don't look "distinguished" LOL...they look OLD And most of them are dying it now so they can look younger, or getting hair implants to cover their bald spots. That should tell you right there that they don't like looking "OLD" just as much as women.

But i think there will always be somewhat of a double standard when it comes to sex, but it's not like it used to be. Women having casual sex and waiting to have children and living life on their own terms is not looked upon as bad anymore, it's looked upon as independent.

Unless of course she's having unprotected casual sex, which in that case, the woman is still usually considered a slut. And a guy having unprotected casual sex is still considered a horny stud. That's one that hasn't gone away and probably won't.

..or then you're just shallow. Unfortunately that seems to be the case with most people, atleast in the US.. looks are everything.

This is why I feel I am superior over my peers...

Most people:
They see someone walking in the park and they immediately point out 3 things wrong with them.

Me:
I see someone walking in the park I will point out 3 things beautiful about them.

Most people:
They hear of something someone they know did in the past, they will use that against them.

Me:
I do not care about your past, when I meet you I am interested in the present and future only.

More people should be this way... the world would be a better place.

Heard about this one before

No, looks aren't everything and I know very few people who think they are. The people who do think looks are everything are usually idiots that nobody likes anyway. "The OC" and MTV are just TV, don't read too much into it. ;-)

Of course everybody likes to "look good" and likes it when other people "look good", but there's a huge difference between "looking good" and being "good looking".

guy fucking many guys---> Pimp and cool
Girl fucking many guys--->slut

now c'mon ... guys who are overweight are still fat ... we just didn't read all those fucked up magazines growing up, so we don't give two shits about it =)

Also ... regarding the "more relaxed" thing ... I've lived with both 5 guys and 5 girls ... and what I've found out is that women are out to fucking kill eachother ... and guys are just out to get laid. So of course it's more relaxed around guys.

:2 cents:

I've lived with one girl. She's still a friend and we now get along great. However, living with her totally killed our friendship. If she wasn't out to kill her latest 3-week bestfriend, she was out to kill me for reasons I still don't understand to this day. I've probably lived with 8-10 different guys over the past couple years. Two were trouble makers, the rest worked out fantastic.

Girls are too high strung in most cases, and guys just don't care. I have found that a lot of girls don't quite understand how much guys really don't care... we don't care!

I'm not trying to be shallow. I'm just being honest. I do think there are a few sexy fat guys

SEXIEST FAT GUY EVER :

:thumbsup maybe that's weird, but for some reason I found him very sexy. Funny as hell too. May he RIP.

Hmmmm...

Who wants to be Pimp and cool?

Yup. I've lived with my girl for 5 years now...and there's times that I wish I found men attractive so I wouldn't have to try to understand women. The sheer lack of logic occasionally makes me want to scream. Women have a totally different mindset to guys..

ROFLMAO!! ain't that the truth.

men have a dick, girls have a pussy

I have to disagree...

Very good, did you come up with that one all by your self ? :1orglaugh

double standards are not much more than a way for people to justify their actions. guys will say its ok to do this because im a guy, blah blah blah. women will do the same only flip it and use the so called double standard to justify that she should be able to do it too.

Not that I think it's the way it is..However many ppl do
