What is the dumbest double standard?

[JessieBellll]

In my opinion it's the pedophile one. People argue older men are worse than older women who take advantage of kids because girls get pregnant but girls get pregnant with guys of any age, and have higher chances of getting pregnant by teen boys, so this double standard is not only illogical and sexist, but also ageist.

[snackthatsmilesback]

"Just friends"
Even though plenty of people say yeah men and women can be just friends, lotta people don't act like it irl.

Lot of my older friends thought I liked her & that I'd be mad if they tried to get with her, a few even tried to set us up a couple times, and ofc denying it only made them more sure. Or my gfs had a couple her friends text her before saying they saw me cheating, on a date/flirting with a girl, when we're just fuckin hanging out like anyone else does.

It isn't very big a deal in the grand scheme of things, and ofc not all people have this double standard, but it's a pretty dumb double standard held by a lot more people than it should be.

[callMeNeel]

Yes, I agree the pedophile one is the worst double standard. Also, another worst double standard is the concept of male rape. Male rape apparently doesn't exist, and men are lucky to get raped. Most countries simply don't recognize male rape as a legal offense.

[Dazed0N0Confused]

1. Pedophilia in Men vs Women.
2. Reproductive health of men v women
3. Criminal charges & sentences based on ethnicity/social standing/economic standing/who you know.
4. How we handle rape... its the victim's fault because they wore this clothing or that/if they didn't want it they should've fought back/you can't rape a man/& so on. Instead of teaching people to RESPECT the word NO & that the rapist is 100% the one at fault.

[Cathy7734]

There are a lot of political double standards between liberals and conservatives. President Obama created "detention facilities" for illegal immigrants. When Trump became president they were then called "concentration camps." When Biden became president they are now called, "detention facilities."

There are a lot of racial double standards too.

[front2back]

Women who want to be treated exactly as men whether it be in the workplace or real life but dodge responsibility at every turn.
I have a feminist coworker who talks about her independence but constantly is asking me to help her with basic home maintenance and car maintenance.

If you need a man to answer your questions and hel you fix things when a YouTube video could teach you exactly the same, are you actually independent?

[Anon621]

One of the dumbest double standards in my opinion is how women are normally allowed to make mistakes and be soft whereas guys are expected to be "masculine" and toughen up or not do anything back when insulted, bullied, and physically hurt by a girl. I just don't think it's okay how some girls literally punch a dude in the privates when they feel insulted I can understand if they were in danger but I personally think hurting someone even if it seems playful when you insult them is not okay.

[RJJ33666]

The dumbest double standard according to me is when a girlfriend has a good male friend and the boyfriend is expected to not have a problem but when the boyfriend has a good female friend the girlfriend has problems with them. I feel this personally because this has happened to me, my girlfriend told me to avoid my friend of 2 years only after 3 months on relationship.

[FinalFantasyBro]

When men has a lot of sex it is considered cool and manly but when women have a lot of sex they are immediately labeled as whores.

Another double standard is how women have tons of choices in their closet, hell they can even wear men clothing and people would consider it as empowerment or encouraging towards women. While on the other hand us men have some of the saddest shit when it comes to clothing options, and if some guys want to do the exact same thing most women do you know wear women clothes they get labeled as either gay or get constantly shamed for wanting to express ourselves.

[JessieBellll]

I agree with the whore double standard

[FinalFantasyBro]

Agree! Honestly all double standard are fucking trash.

[JessieBellll]

No I mean girls who sleep a lot deserve to called whores

[FinalFantasyBro]

Really! I am surprised well I guess not everyone will agree that what makes the world great we both can agree or disagree.

[JessieBellll]

Why are you surprised?

[FinalFantasyBro]

I am surprised that a woman also thinks that women who constantly sleep around with a bunch of men are whores, it was just a bit surprising to hear at first. But I can kinda understand why you think people who do always sleep around with others is sort of dirty though.

[JessieBellll]

It's hot if men do it

[FinalFantasyBro]

Huh I honestly wasn't thinking of that but cool we all have our things we find attractive.

[ilikefrogsalot]

You asked a question about a 49 yr old pedophile sleeping with a 16 yr old and you even defended him in the comments. Why do you keep defending male pedophiles in your questions? Why do you hate only women pedophiles instead? If the 49 yr old was a woman, would you be more pissed?

[JessieBellll]

You can't be a pedophile if you have legal sex, and that's a question for men who don't mind female pedophiles, not me.

[JessieBellll]

And of course I'd be more pissed if it was a woman, just like @Lionman95 would be more pisses if it was a man

[NightHawk99]

Women expect men to accept them regardless of their flaws... But are quick to judge men's flaws immediately. It's okay for a woman to say a man has a small dick, but god forbid a man comment on a woman's weight.

[MarkRet]

The dumbest double standard is if a woman is a virgin, society seems to be fine with it, but if a man is a virgin, he's considered the biggest joke in town, like The 40-Year Old Virgin.

[JessieBellll]

I never heard of that

[JessieBellll]

And if that's true its result of you men being sex freaks

[RJJ33666]

Well, actually it's because of people who end up being married at a younger age and then end up losing their Virginity leading to people believing that losing your Virginity early is a sign of healthy manhood

[Gavilar1]

If men choose to have less sex they are considered gay is a toxic double standard

[RJJ33666]

That is true, well, being a man has its trouble

[SeanshterMonster]

Physical preferences. I've meet many women who get mad and pissed off that men would be like that saying it's controlling, sexist, misogyny, toxic masculinity but it's perfectly fine for women to have unrealistic Physical preferences like only guys above 6', giant muscles, 6 figures, big dick, gets whatever she wants.

[Anonymous]

I AGREE 100% WITH YOU men should be able to date anybody of any age they want to date or be with. Both parties have a mind of their own and can tell you if they want or not it's so simple

[JessieBellll]

Lol look at the simp downvoting

[Opinion Owner]

Yeah I don't know why people get all jacked up over emotional feelings towards females and males of younger ages.

[OliviaOfTheScots]

With an exception of dating kids I presume?

[JessieBellll]

@OliviaOfTheScots just go away

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Just a question pal x

[Opinion Owner]

You're 23 years old... I would date you of your age

[OliviaOfTheScots]

So yes to excluding kids?

[Opinion Owner]

I don't know what you consider "kids"

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Under 18

[Opinion Owner]

If you want kids under 18 that's all you

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Not a nonce personally

[Opinion Owner]

I mean there is a limit, but like maybe 15 could be that limit, or even 12 if they fully are capable.

[OliviaOfTheScots]

That's sick

[Opinion Owner]

I bet when you were younger you did different

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Talking 18+ having relations with under 18s

[Opinion Owner]

The girls I know who are younger have dated older guys and they dont care... why should we?

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Because pedophilia bad?

[JessieBellll]

@OliviaOfTheScots if they are legal its nobody's business

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Sure, someone older than 18 fucking about with someone younger than 18 is illegal

[Opinion Owner]

Exactly it's nobody's business

[JessieBellll]

@OliviaOfTheScots God, you are British and you don't know your own laws, how dense can you get?

Age of consent is 16 in the UK. No need to thank me

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Currently residing in the US and assumed you were too:) and personally think it should be raised to 18

[OliviaOfTheScots]

And @jessiebellll let's tone down the name calling when there's chatties of you being a middle aged man with a hankering for chatting to kids :)

[JessieBellll]

@OliviaOfTheScots I just find ignorant people so annoying, they speak stuff without knowing anything.

Thanks for confirming you are biased towards men likemosy people on here.

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Where'd I show I was biased towards men?

[Opinion Owner]

Why you being this way I mean let kids make their choices

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Who?

[JessieBellll]

Don't talk to her @anonymous she's as dumb as it can get

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Because I dont like pedophilia?

[OliviaOfTheScots]

You've yet to explain how I'm biased towards guys

[Opinion Owner]

Never said you were biased, I actually think you're against children

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Not you, and not against kids just against kids having sex with adults.

Really not that fucking confusing

[Opinion Owner]

WOAH I never said sex with adults 🤣 I said relationships with children, I don't think anybody dared to suggest sex. Not at least till they are like 16

[OliviaOfTheScots]

THAT'S THE POINT IM MAKING.

I the lass was hammering on about being bias which is fucking irrelevant to the fact that pedophilia is wrong

[JessieBellll]

@OliviaOfTheScots but there is a lot of bias, open your eyes

[OliviaOfTheScots]

To fucking what,50th time I've asked you to where or when or how there's any bias you melon

[JessieBellll]

@OliviaOfTheScots if you read my questions, you should see that from lot of men and some women. Do your research and educate yourself

[OliviaOfTheScots]

Are you incapable of answering a bloody question honestly

[JessieBellll]

@OliviaOfTheScots I don't answer to little kids

[OliviaOfTheScots]

You messege them about sex apparently

[JessieBellll]

@OliviaOfTheScots you shouldn't pry and talk about sex, you are too young.

Go play with some toys or go to bed. It's late.

[Opinion Owner]

That was kinda funny

[JosyJosy]

Guy hits girl, jump him, beat him up.
Girl hits guy, nobody cares

[Anonymous]

I'm not sure if this is a double standard, but wearing too little clothes gets me lots of criticism for looking slutty, so when I wear lots of clothes I also get constantly told "why are you overdressed, aren't you hot". It's just as bad. WHAT DO I DO?

[normalice]

Republicans spending thousands of hours investigating benghazi but none investigating their own attempt to overthrow democracy on 1/6. Of course, this double standard is smart for the republicans, as they dont get held accountable for wrongdoing but get to weild investigations as a political weapon. Its just dumb of the people who fall for it.

[JessieBellll]

That's more of a hypocrisy than double standard

[normalice]

True. Hypocrisy is just the implementation of a double standard, I suppose..

[JessieBellll]

Your fixation on republicans is unhealthy

[normalice]

Republicans are unhealthy. My fixation is on being rid of them.

[JessieBellll]

You are an extremist

[JessieBellll]

And biased

[normalice]

Nah. I understand you can't fathom yourself striving to be impartial and thus don't see how anyone else could, either, but that's just part of your bias.

As far asextremism, I don't condone violence. I want to be rid of republicans by showing them they don't have to be republicans just to make themselves feel better.

[JessieBellll]

You impartial?

Hahahahaha

[normalice]

I strive to be. But in doing so it is important to be able to identify those who make no effort to be impartial, using the excuse that true objectivity is unobtainable. That would be you 🙃

[JessieBellll]

You are literally one of the most sexist, biased, and what person I know and you try to be objective or get people to be objective?

What the actual fuck? This is the most ridiculous stuff I read in a long time

[normalice]

Thats what you say, but knowing you come from a position where you actively tried to become as biased as you could, and are proud of it, it doesn't really matter.

[JessieBellll]

How am I biased?

I am really curious

[normalice]

In all the ways you told me you try to be, I'd imagine.

[JessieBellll]

I am not the one who gets triggered if someone says boys get taken advantage of by female pedophiles which is a pure fact

[JessieBellll]

Or who gets triggered by republicans easily like this

You get triggered because you are everything I say

[normalice]

Well, no matter hard I try I'm not going to be able to convey to you just how impossible it would be for you to "trigger" me. But whatever conversation you want to imagine we are having, it's not like I can stop you.

[JessieBellll]

You suffer from memory problems

[normalice]

Just the normal ones.

[JessieBellll]

I think it's the opposite

[normalice]

I know.

[JessieBellll]

Good that you admit it, you are making improvements

[JessieBellll]

Are you triggered about older men seducing young girls?

[normalice]

Nah.

[JessieBellll]

You sure?

[normalice]

I've explained all of this and all my exceptions to you before. Sorry it wasn't what you wanted to hear and thus you didn't bother to remember it.

[JessieBellll]

I wasn't talking about exceptions

[Anonymous]

There's lots of double standards out there that piss me off and I can make a never ending list of them. The biggest one for me is the justice system. Someone can get life in prison for drugs but those who commit much worse, violent crimes can go free as long as they have money, a good lawyer, good traits or qualities, or are just good at getting sympathy (that they don't deserve) from others. Examples include Ethan Couch and Casey Anthony.

[kellogg0224]

[The_Maphio]

Too many labels in a single sentence, but overall agreed. People should learn when it's better to shut up, especially when the categories they are part of are not better in any way than those they are pointing their finger against.

[Kabluie]

I agree about pedos. Look at the women teachers being rapists, having sex and getting pregnant with 14 year old students. Sometimes they get off on lesser sentences.

[Goatmeal]

Don't tell me a fugly bullied white dude in a trailer park is more "privileged" than a beautiful, popular minority woman at Harvard.

[Anonymous]

Being assertive as a female vs male. How women in powerful roles are considered to be cold bossy bitches, whereas men are seen as leaders.

[Twalli]

Older women and younger men have no possibility of pregnancy. If it's "consensual" then it is just fun. With girls it can be just for fun, but there's no guarantee that a pregnancy won't result.

[JessieBellll]

This doesn't answer the question, and there is a possibility of the boy paying child support if the woman or girls get pregnant when they turn 18

[JessieBellll]

*when the boy turns 18

[Twalli]

Not if she's old enough to be menopausal

[JessieBellll]

This shows how biased you are

[Twalli]

So you disagree with biology. I am saying that sex with no possibility of pregnancy is just for fun. Nothing will happen regardless of how it ends.

[JessieBellll]

Most of them are not that old.

And if they are, that's CREEPY as fuck, and no wonder you are into that and support perverted old women.

[JessieBellll]

By your logic, girls shouldn't have sex ever, because they can get pregnant.

This shows how dumb your argument and double standard is

[Twalli]

I don't support it, but I know that some guys like much older women. As for sex just for fun I know more of it than you, because that's the only type of sex I have.

[Twalli]

Girls can have sex if they're ready to get pregnant or if necessary precautions are taken.

[JessieBellll]

So why is it wrong for young girls to have sex with older men? You say about precautions but you still whine about pregnancies every day, and use it as a justification why it's wrong to have sex with older men.

Girls like much older men too, I think you have some kind of trauma, because you have no logic.

[Twalli]

I don't mind it if they're legal and able to have a child. Most people aren't

[JessieBellll]

Most people can have a child. You seem to battle some kind of trauma and using it against older men

[Twalli]

I do have trauma In my life, but I don't think it had anything to do with my feelings regarding pedophiles

[JessieBellll]

It clearly has an impact on how you view older men with young girls. You developed some kind of a prejudice.

[Twalli]

Again I don't see how it could

[JessieBellll]

Yet you don't see it as wrong for a parent to hide a female pedophile because they "don't do harm".

If that's not a bias I don't know what is.

[Twalli]

Where in my answers did I say that? Specifically

[JessieBellll]

You clearly said you understand this woman and other men for hiding female pedophiles but are against me hiding male pedophiles.

You clearly have a bias

[Twalli]

Understanding =/= agreeing

[Anonymous]

One double standard I can’t stand is where the guy has to call the guys associated his his girlfriend’s friends his friends but she doesn’t have to call the girls associated with the boyfriend her friends

[Dchrls78104]

The one where domestic violence is justifiable when the female attacks the male.

[es20490446e]

Being a feminist or a MGTOW, as both are sexist themselves.

[Nazgol]

The dymbet is that men can have casual sex or multiple partners but a girl shouldn't & if she does she's not womanly & gets called names

Single parenthood. Single mother gets support, single father doesn't

[fred_durst]

because women always right , so it is okay for older women to did that

[CertifiedHandsomity]

The pedophile one. Cardi B flirted with 3rd and 4th grade students but she's considered an idol.

This is a very good question.

[berserk945]

Its wrong for any adult to have sex with a minor

That doesn't answer the question
