Double Standards; Are they really all bad?

Is there such a thing as a good or acceptable double standard?

I was watching the George Lopez show recently and the neighbors found out that a registered sex offender had moved into the neighborhood. They all gathered into a mob and storm their way to confront the person, but when they found out that it was an attractive woman they laughed it off and left.

This got me thinking if all double standards were bad. There's plenty of them out there that don't seem to bother anyone.

For instance:

Girls can hit boys, but boys can't hit girls.
Minorities can make racial comparative joke, but whites can't.
So forth and so on ...
You can give examples of some you have come across.

Me myself, I think that there will always be double standard and for good reasons. People are not all the same. There are differences from male to female and from race to race and from whatever to whatever. The only thing we can really do is to try to treat others the way we want to be treated.

one that i know of is if you're a guy and you sleep with everyone you're automatically cool. If you're a girl and you sleep with everyone you're automatically a slut.

It takes a mere second for treasure to turn to trash.

Indeed. That is also true, Helghast.

The girl hitting one is a stupid stereotype, woman should be hit when need be, men should be hit when need be (or not exactly "need be" it's pretty bad to hit someone, but you shouldn't allow someone to kick your ***** if they are a girl! Or vice versa!)

Another would be: When a guy cheats on a girl, she's allowed to smash up his stuff. But if a girl cheats on a guy, if he breaks anything of her's, he's declared an insane idiot.

And when there a arguement between a couple, the male is the one to sleep on the couch or be in any real trouble, if it's the women's fault there's no action taken against her at all.
