When someone is allowed to get away with something others arent. when a particular standard is applied to a certain group but not another. this doesn't necessarily apply to gender but everything.
Politicians complaining about pet projects and pork spending as a problem but still pushing their own through because theirs is obviously more okay is a great example of double standards.
The smaller pay black soldiers receive was also a double standard

Anything which is okay for a particular group of humans to engage in but completely unacceptable if another particular group indulges in it.
A group of girls at a party scan the place for hot guys. They comment about their physical attributes, scorecard them and rate them on a scale of 1 to 10. Labeled as ACCEPTABLE and CUTE.
A group of guys at the same party scan the place for hot girls. They comment about their physical attributes, scorecard them and rate them on a scale of 1 to 10. Labeled as MALE CHAUVINIST PIGS WHO OBJECTIFY WOMEN. This is a double standard.
A girl refers to a guy's junk as his 'package' or 'dick'. ACCEPTABLE.
A man refers to a woman's privates as 'boobs', 'tits', 'pussy' etc. UNACCEPTABLE. This is another double standard.
A woman who doesn't want to get married and lives alone. Labeled as STRONG, INDEPENDENT, LEVELHEADED.
A man who doesn't want to get married and lives alone. Labeled as A COMMITMENT-PHOBIC WIMP WHO CAN'T HANDLE A FAMILY.
Double standards suck!

A girl who respects herself enough to know that she deserves a man that is gonna treat her with respect and meet the standards. If you ever meet a girl with super high standards, shes a keeper! this can also go for boys
I want someone who is faithful, loyal, funny, intelligent, smart and worthy oh and also a christain man!
HIGH STANDARDS

From banning white people from saying a word, to men not being able to express themselves, thank you double standards for ruining the world.

what you use to refer to a person (mostly male) as a very boring and orthodox person. someone who only does the normal thing and not anything exciting.
person 1 "hey, me and the lads are going to the strip club on Saturday and make it rain on some pretty girls with stupid names like 'boner garage'. you wanna hit it up?"
person 2 " nah. i cant, i got to study for my exam coming up or my teacher will drop me of the course so quick; i wont even have time to cry about it"
person 1 "stop being such a standard geezer and hit it up with the lads"
person 2" yeahhhh, you right. fuck biology, ill study for it later".
