Get the righteous heartachemug. More righteous or more morally qualified isn't equal, so females pushing males for that aren't pushing them for equality, they are pushing for superiority, and that's bullshit. It's as bullshit as males trying to do the same thing with females.
The girl couldn't see that her own double standards or steps on her own ladder were everything she ever made fun of in somebody else when picking at their double standards or seeing through the rungs in their ladders, so she kept talking shit about people and judging them while telling them not to judge her for it. She wasn't any more righteous than anybody else, but always thought she was.

Get the Righteousmug. A sin-ful triangle that continually needs to go for confession so that it could behave more like a right one on this side of eternity—until its last breath when it will be platonically transformed into a perfect one.

Get the Righteous Trianglemug. One who pretends to be a high credibility or operates under false pretenses in order to earn money and truly not help their communities as they proclaim to.
Martin Luther King, Jr. was considered to be a “poor righteous teacher”, but people like televangelist are more like faux-righteous teachers. They simply pretend to do it for the good of others but they profit largely from their exploitation of faith and community giving.
