Get the The Kavanaugh Standard mug.Double standards dont come from society, they come from people. Therefore any double standard in a female's favor usually come from females.

noun
*| \ ˈsta-ndərd ˈsi-stər-in-ˌlȯ yü-nət *
Abbreviation: SSILU
Symbol: 𝓢 or SIL
Definition:
An unofficial unit of mass equal to 300 pounds (136.08 kilograms), used to simulate high-risk, real-world human load scenarios in mechanical, structural, and transportation systems. The SSILU is commonly applied to test the failure thresholds of furniture, vehicle seats, elevators, bicycles, airline cabins, and public patience.
Etymology:
Originated in post-war American slang, the term is derived from the stereotype of a loud, heavyset female relative—often portrayed as emotionally volatile and structurally compromising—whose presence tests both family dynamics and infrastructure load-bearing capacity. While non-literal, the “sister-in-law” archetype evokes maximum physical and psychological mass concentration in civilian environments.
Technical Classification:
Measurement Type: Anthropomorphic Load Unit
Mass: 300 lbs (≈ 136.08 kg)
Field Use: Structural stress testing, emergency engineering simulation
Design Benchmark: Most consumer goods are not rated past 0.8 SSILU
