Double standard

The one where if a male stands up for a female, he's a soldier, but if he stands up to a female, he's a clown. Meanwhile, if a female stands up to a male, she's a hero, and everybody is on her side. That is one you don't hear about from feminists, since they are more interested in having their own win a bullshit battle of the sexes than having all of humanity triumph.
Females are not a less selfish sex than males, you just don't hear as much about a double standard that doesn't make them look good from feminists.

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.

Double standard

A standard that works one way for one person or group, and another for a different person or group.
The reckless and careless girl that got in several severe accidents while driving intoxicated on ambien and alchohol or just drunk (and also got her dog hospitalized due to negligence) was the one posting public service announcements on all the electronic signs on a roadway about how people should drive safely or go to jail, drive drunk and lose their license, or to stay hydrated and not drive drowsy or sleepy, or preaching against cruelty to animals while asking for donations on TV ads. That's a lot like a mayor being on crack and having people arrested for smoking weed or any other drugs for that matter. Some people can poke fun at the double standard of another human and judge them, but don't want to get judged in return, they tell you don't judge me when they judge as much as everybody else.

Double standard

When someone lives to excess and has nothing but expanding dollar signs/becoming powerful (in real estate or new development, for example) on their mind, but also wants to wrap their tentacles around conservation efforts and humanitarian causes (such as social justice, income equality, sustainable energy, and a bunch of other issues they don't even hold sacred) to cover their tracks (and get credited for positive things) in case anybody questions (or stands up to) them.
The dorky bubbly girl claming to be a humanitarian and conservationist was one of the main reasons a lot of trees were missing, but she was too busy poking fun at other people's double standards to notice her own. She thought that humans were too responsible for global warming because she thought everyone else was trying to dominate or control the world's resources to the extent (excesses) that she was. She was arrogant enough to believe humans caused the last ice age, and that they were the sole reason for global warming, and the worst thing about somebody like her was that she didn't know it, she only saw arrogance in other people, which is the worst kind of arrogance, complete and total narcissism (the kind of narcissism that also only sees narcissism in others). The planet wasn't going to miss her when she was no longer a part of it and it's problems, but she would never see that either, because she had convinced the planet and the people living on it that they somehow needed her.

Double standard

If a male was try and make a female wear (or not wear) a striped shirt, it would be called sexism, but if a female makes her husband wear the stupid fucking shirt, it's not called anything, they don't even have a name to call it.
People that like to poke fun at a double standard, but don't like anyone noticing their own never made a name to call a female that makes her husband wear a shirt.

Double standard

Different people held to different standards.
Nothing he/she did was ever lecherous, but if some else did the same thing as him/her, it was called lechery. No amount of celebration was excessive enough for him/her, and it was never called gloating when he/she did it, but if somebody else did it, it was always called gloating. He/she never did anything by a double standard, but was quick to try and tease or poke fun at the double standards of others.
