Are Double Standards An Important Part Of Relationships Today?

[Billlewis]

. I believe that the vast majority of M/F relationships nowadays feature at least one, if not multiple double standards, to make the relationship more appealing for the female. Do you agree with this?

I know this probably sounds crazy, but my two favorite double standards are when, although I've been seeing her for a long time, she's never once let me have intercourse with her, while several other guys, despite only having known her for a week or two, are enjoying hot, passionate sex with her regularly, which she openly acknowledges without any trepidation.

I've always believed that one of the most important double standards is that a woman should always be encouraged to date, bed and have sex with as many men as she likes, while her main boyfriend remains 100% faithful and exclusive to her.

It is so important that I am helpless to stop from cheating with big dick Black men, while my white boyfriend can never cheat. Heenjoys it as much as I do so the double standard works for both of us. If it didn't, I would cheat anyway. I can indirectly rub it in his face and make it known with all the blatant proof, but he has to acccept my denial and rage when he "falsely" accuses me. And he better fucking apologize and beg on his knees for forgiveness for even thinking I would do that even though I just did. After heapologizes I'll say I have to go "talk" with the guy he accused me of cheating with, then spend the night fucking and leaving more proof. A few times, I've invited the Black guy over to my boyfriend's to "talk" and we'll close the door and fuck and make all those sounds while we know he's listening. Then after the fucking there willbe this wet spot on the bed or the office chair and all the smell of sex. He might hang for a bit while my boyfriend absorbs all this, then I'll walk the guy out and hold his hand and cuddle close give him a friendly on the lips kiss that lingers, knowing my boyfriend is watchng but can't say a fucking word. Yes, double standards are everything.

It's not an important part of relationships. It's a disastrous one. I dislike double standards. What's good for the goose is good for the gander and all that...

Only time it's acceptable is if it's an agreed arrangement based on kinks lime what you like @Billlewis haha.

I do not tolerate double standards and I will only be dominated on my own terms. I stand strong against injustice and I will not be made anybody's toy. Nobody is important enough to degrade me in any way I do not want them to. Fuck double standards.

You should have included your height in your profile. No woman is obligated to date you. Why would you want to waste your time meeting a woman who is not going to find you attractive? I'm sure you would reject a woman because of her appearance.

Ah, the age-old dance of double standards in relationships, always a hot topic! 🕺💃 Whether we're talking about chores, emotional labor, or even who gets more say in choosing the Netflix flick, it feels like the scales can tip in unexpected ways. I'd argue that it's not just about making things more appealing for one gender over the other. Rather, it's about communication and compromise. Each relationship is a unique mix of personalities, expectations, and individual quirks. The key isn't in whether double standards exist—they often do, subtly or not so subtly—but in how couples navigate them. Are they talking it out, finding middle ground, and ensuring both partners feel valued and heard? That's the real heartthrob of a healthy relationship. So, let's strive for balance, understanding, and a good dash of humor to keep things spicy! 🌶️ Love is about making it work together, after all.

Only if they’re balanced will it work. Meaning….. two people play different roles but play an equal part. But one sided relationships rarely work out….. One person generally becomes miserable putting all the effort in and long term it falls apart.

I'm 6'5", but I see no relevance in that. I only say this because I know I'm above avg. height. But a person's height has NO BEARING on their quality. I reject every woman on dating apps that messages me that has in her profile "must be over 6 feet tall".

No I don't think they are an important part of relationships today. I think they are just a prime example of the sickness that has pervaded today's male-female interaction.

Double standards about what exactly?

You need to be on the same page OR you will hit a brick wall before too long.

[Billlewis]

In terms of what the expectations are regarding various subjects, from financial matters to dating other people, etc. I think in many, if not most cases, these double standards are often understood, and implied, more than actually discussed or agreed upon.

[IslaTheWitch]

they never was and never will be a standard... as they from ages have been a major reason of break ups...

[Damaged00]

They obviously exist in relationships but they are not a good thing. I can't stand double standards. I really don't like hypocrites.

[Mark987]

I find now more than ever Women have finally caught upto Men in the way of double standards. Before a man would be " the man" if he slept with multiple women.. now women do the same thing and they get treated like a man would.

[ProbablyClueless]

Important in the sense that they are a significant part of relationships. I'm not sure that they are a good or beneficial part though.

[Anonymous]

yes of course

man domestically abuse woman = he's a monster

woman domestically abuse man = man needs to toughen up

[Crimsyjo]

That's a good example.

Also recently... the view if an older man seduces a underage girl he's a pedophile and sex pest. If a older woman seduces a boy (like under 18) its applauded from pov of wow what a lucky kid.

[Vegasrunner]

They always have been. Only difference now is that society tends to accept the female standard a little more.

[Ladsin2]

I'm fine with different standards for different people.

[Anonymous]

Not sure what you mean. Do you have any examples of said double standards?

[Opinion Owner]

@update: Dude--that isn't an example of a double standard. That's the girl demonstrating she HAS standards.
