Double Standards

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

racist double standard

A black guy can say "Black pride" all he wants, and everyone say's he's celebrating his heritage.

However, if a white person says "White pride", he's automatically a member of the KKK.

Now, I'm no racist. I have no problem with black people at all. However, what's up with this? I guess it was made up by the pinko commie liberal bastards who are ruining our country. Why can't we ship them all to some South Pacific island?
White Person - "White pride!"

Liberal Person - "Shut the fuck up, racist!"

Black Person - "Black pride!"

Liberal Person - "Good job on celebrating your heritage!"

Me - "WTF!?"

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.
