When an Indian woman has a red dot on her forehead, it's because of her faith, but when I have one, it's because the CIA no longer requires my services. |

Men can't be raped but women can. Slowly the concept is starting to change, but it's been a pretty bad double standard since laws against rape against women. |

I agree. I believe that the majority of the worst double standards are gender related |

Yeah it's definitely between gender and race I'd say. I've seen so many people argue that you "can't be racist towards white people" to try justify them being complete hypocrites. Then there's people who claim to fight for equality but selectively choose which side is more important in each category. |

Yeah, the 'you can't be racist to white people' thing is frustrating. |

The classic "you can't be racist to white people", that honestly angers me so much - how can you be so ignorant? In regards to gender, domestic and sexual abuse towards males is treated as a joke - which is really sad. Edit: Ninja'd by Mitas welp Edited by Daniel, Aug 25 2016, 05:06 PM.

I agree with Mitas and Daniel. That's probably my biggest double standard. |

No doubt. I haven't heard anyone say that in a while which is great, but that is the worst double standard imo. |

I had some woman privately message me the other day giving me this huge spiel about how "academic racism" means that we can only be prejudiced towards white people, not racist. Because racism is about power. Because prejudice isn't part of the whole definition of racism or anything. She basically tried to imply that because it was studied it was right. I should have reminded her that Scientology is also a thing... |

He was making a spammy/joke comment, but it doesn't make sense because it's not a double standard. |

The gendered ones are by far the most prevalent. Men can sleep around and be praised for it, women can't. Men can get away with not caring about their appearance, women can't. Women can be in touch with their emotions, men are expected to suck it up and deal with it. Gender roles are pretty harmful and so ingrained in to society that it's hard to shake them off. |

The sleeping around one, oh god, that irks me so much. What's that dumb saying, "if a lock is opened by every key, it's a s***ty lock but if a key opens every lock it's a master key". Who even comes up with this crap. If a women wants to sleep around, all the power to them - sex is enjoyable. If a man wants to do, go for it buddy. But why is their a difference? |

I both agree and disagree. Men get raped as often, or even more often than women, but a lot of men are too insecure to report it because a claim of rape is embarrassing and takes away from their masculinity. This creates single-sided statistics that favor women getting raped more, and society creates that thought that men don't get raped at all, or only in prison. As for the op, any gender based double standard sucks; and there's disadvantages and double standards on both sides. For example, plenty of female athletes are expected to answer questions that pertain to their clothing or their bodies, but male athetes are not expected to, and no one even asks them (unless it's like body-building or something). |
