To add to #1, men are expected to be natural leaders, and must always show confidence. Anytime a man shows insecurity, it's seen as a turn off. Women can be insecure, but men can't.
All these double standards are just how society is, when it comes to emotions like crying men have to be strong, and female crimes are not that bad compared to male crimes, since the female criminals are not that threatening compared to their male counterpart, and even if women get caught breaking the law they're treated a lot more lenient than men, and receive lesser sentences than men, women are allowed to be emotional and vulnerable because women are more in tune with their emotions than men, and anything bad that happens to a woman everyone is there for her, but it's not the same for a man because men must be strong, as long as you have a vagina you will get treated better.
Wow, there are quite a few bitter resentful women here who don't like it when the light is shone on their BS. Very good take. It might be very controversial, but this needs to be said more often.
You might have a point for some women, but none of these are things I do.

Bang on, but don't expect to get any sympathy or remorse from women. They are still so wound up in their outdated female victimology, it will take decades more before they see what assholes they have been.
Unfortunately some of the female responses to this have been less than appreciative. In fact they have been what i expected. Insults, and worse. Thankfully some are not like that, yours included, thanks for your positive response.
Like Pearl says, most women want to point out the exception; never the rule. Typically, too many women play the victim card and there are plenty of exceptions where they are the victims. However, 90% of victims are men. Throughout history, many men died protecting women; never have women died protecting men.
You'll get a #11 soon, there will be no doubt women objecting to this list, but had a woman made a list about double standards, they'd be all in support of it.

You got that right. A lot of women on this site are raging hypocrites.
all of his points are double standards men face. here are some other facts. women aren't victims of a patriarchy (a patriarchy hasn't existed for decades in the US) women aren't paid less (factually they are paid more than their male counterparts even with same experience , time worked etc) women aren't oppressed (haven't been for about 70 years now) feminism accomplished equality in the 60's/70's as a result feminism today has no purpose and is factually not fighting for equality. if you don't have anything nice or constructive to say be quiet
That is fine doesn't change the fact that correcting and educating those that are wrong or mislead is the responsibility of the educated. As is helping those less fortunate than ourselves. Futile as such an endeavor might be there is a chance however small that she realizes that she has been mislead and lied to.
Lady, Its not that im angry, its that your comment and those like yours add nothing to the discussion and only prove my point, that any time a man chooses to speak about stuff like this, we get responses like yours. Quite frankly your response is not only misandrist, its sexist. It shows no thought, it shows you did not read the mytake, it shows that you are in the category of women who idiotically believe that they can do no wrong. And for the record, i am happily married. Most of the mytake entries were my wife's idea, granted we collaborated on it, i simply asked her to step outside of woman hood and asked her to help me come up with some double standards that disproportionately effect men negatively that society sees as normal.. Unlike you, my wife is a rational thinking person capable of both growth and change. Women like you are nothing compared to her.
Much better response. Without the insults it would have been perfect. Never forget that educating and being honest to the mislead and lied to can be worth it. Use insults as a last resort once you have tried and failed at being polite.
@HawkPereception She's just upset since the gender she's attracted to talks about double standards. Women are attracted to men and the last thing they want is them complaining about women lol. A lot of women take it personally, sadly.
Mate with respect, by responding to trolls in such a manner, you are just lowering your self to their level. People that have to resort to shaming, insults, ad hominem, and personal attacks do so because they have no argument. Your take is excellent but acting in this matter can and may effect it's credibility. Be better than that.
I couldn't even make it past #9. Wow. Ummm... Did you try to somehow justify or... I'm seriously at a loss for words here. Did you attempt to explain that domestic violence should be an equal opportunity issue? ... like a what's good for the goose is good for the gander?

If that's what you got from 9, than you're not as intelligent as you think you are.. I posted 9 because I'm a victim of domestic violence who was threatened with jail time when I reported it. She literally sliced my face up and when I called the police I was told that if she had so much as broken a nail I'd be going to prison. Being a man who as never laid a hand on any woman in an abusing way. I was shocked at that statement.. Additionally when I went to the hospital to get stitched up I was asked what I did to deserve it.. So yes there is a huge fucking double standard when it comes to domestic violence. But you're not intelligent enough to have that conversation.
Don't you DARE ever put words into my mouth, don't ever assume shit about me..
OK keyboard warrior, you are absolutely correct, I am in fact a fucking coward. Please show me mercy in all subsequent replies to this comment and posts; this I beg of you. Your ability to moderate the content on this site has been clearly demonstrated. Your intellect and morality far exceed my own. I promise to wear the scarlet letters "FC" on all outer garments from this moment forward. Please Keyboard Warrior, have mercy on my soul.
I consider myself a real feminist and I fully support women but I agree that sometimes Men take the shit It is important to keep in mind your S/O has feelings too

take a look at this one then. I have no issues with real feminists until they start pushing bullshit that is false.
i happen to absolutely love Cassie Jaye, and Christina Hoff Sommers, Two real feminists.
Points 8 and 2 is literally incorrect. goes both ways in our societal structure and is false in nature. why do lionesses hunt? its because their stronger/faster. why do males sit around with their beautiful manes and eyes. thats because males are supposed to be visual and in supposed in advertisments. because males catch the eyes public so if you cannot handle your role which is being sexually complimented you dont undertand nature and how women work.

You can disagree all you like lady, it doesn't change the fact that it's true and it happens.
I am sure women donβt care about what makes guys upset, sad or sick.

Great points, all true.
To add to #1, men are expected to be natural leaders, and must always show confidence. Anytime a man shows insecurity, it's seen as a turn off. Women can be insecure, but men can't.

I agree there are some double standards. But I believe they should be raised for women, not lowered for men.
Except I do believe men should be allowed to be emotional, just like women.
9 is the best they always bring the "but men are stronger" argument. yeah true but if you know that, why do you hit them tho?
You might have a point for some women, but none of these are things I do.

You are telling it like it is.

Agreed
Women have millions of options when it comes to dating, men have zero. The biggest double standard I have ever seen.
No matter how much anyone announce that, that news is still going to be fresh on the next 10 years or so.
Lmfao
100% spot on!

Fukn A
Yeah I definitely agree, you can tell that the women who commented on this post donβt like the fact that you shined a light on this.
Very good points made here, and so very true, feminism is to blame for this
I wonder who hurted u that much
rough rejection? not enough attention? no luck with opposite gender?
See there we goβ¦a man complains and suddenly heβs a crybabyβ¦STFU
@JHAYES317 the only reply I say to rude people is, stay mad!
Typical arrogant narcissistic low value low intelligent response.. Your response literally proves my point. Grow up child.
its ok to vent anger out
but dont do it on me
have good day

Most women are either too stupid or too arrogant to admit when they are wrong Jacob.

You got it. I see it everyday.
Steer clear then and you'll be just fine
Yikes such a dismissive comment. The guy speaks facts and you insult him for it
@HawkPereception She's just upset since the gender she's attracted to talks about double standards. Women are attracted to men and the last thing they want is them complaining about women lol. A lot of women take it personally, sadly.
Same with the genders reversed.
"Hurted" lol does this girl speak English LOL

I agree with the premise of this take. I don't know if there could be a solution.
Is this part of an emilywking series on Youtube?
