Used by Christians to try and tell poeple not to have sex, get drunk, and do drugs. Seldom works but there is progress they believe. Some people are no long doing drugs and having sex at the same time....sometimes.

Christain-gotta have morals and standards guys, abstinence is good for you.

Non-Christian. Absta-what.

Christain-No sex before marriage

Non-Christian - seems like a long time, are morals and standards really that important?

Christian- yes, but its your descion

Double standard

A different standard for one person or group than another.

The double standard put a lot of red tape around what guys could and couldn't do to females, but little to no red tape around what females could and coudln't do to guys.

Approximately 15 minutes per dozen chairs. Krispy Kreme donuts, by comparison, take 1 hour per dozen before all are gone.

selective double standard

A double standard based more on somebody's personal negative feelings than on fairness.

Lindsay the supervisor would order people she hated to do more work than everyone else (move the goalposts on them) and was quicker to try and get them fired if she hated them (a negative feeling towards them she would always deny having or say someone else felt that way if asked simply, plainly, and directly) whether they did their jobs as well as everyone else or not. She lived by the same kind of selective double standard she would always try and poke fun at others for having.
