I resopnded to a couple of threads about double standards and would like to start a thread about it.

lets see how many double standards we can list.

1) oral sex seems to be more exceptable for a woman not to give than for a man not to give.
2)masterbation seems to be ok for a woman to avoid sex with there partner but not ok for a man.
3)gaining weight, if a woman gains weight we are to accept it but if a man gains weight hes a beer drinking couch potato.

Now I'm not trying to start any problems just courious as to what others think.

the 3 that I mentioned above are the 3 that popped into my head I'm sure there are more but for the life of me I can't think of any related to the man in the relationship.so cum on ladies let me have it tell me some double standards you have experianced.

Again I didn't start this to anger anyone,but I thought it would be fun to hash out some of the double standards of a relationship.

(sorry about my poor spelling)

Oh I thought of one aginst the male partner.

1) the woman usually is very thought full about special dates wedding anaveries,birthday,v-day. and the man is usually rushing around last minute and ends up getting something sub-par

How about
1) men can sleep around and be studs, while women are wh*res.

Does sound a bit paranoid, but I do believe there is definitely a double standard. Here's a couple of others:
1) When a woman cheats, we are admonished to be understanding of her feelings, it was because she was unhappy, unfulfilled, desperate for affection and attention and her man was not doing his job. But when a man cheats, it's because he is a slimeball who put his poor, suffering wife thru hell all for his simple, shallow male pleasures, and he deserves to be divorced, publicly humiliated and taken to the cleaners.
2) If a woman controls the finances in the family, she is smart, keeping up on things and it's "you go, girl". But if the man controls finances, he is stubborn, abusive and a controlling schmuck who doesn't treat his wife as an equal partner.

another double standard issue is cheating. if a woman cheats its made a bigger deal than if a man cheats!

there soo many double standard issues...i can go on and on. and women have found for years for equal rights for years and yet we are still looked differently.
