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

Double standards

When somebody tells you not to talk about anybody's business, then they go and tell everybody about a secret being out because they have no self control over their own mouth.

The loudmouth didn't blurt anything out about her own double standards, but was quick to blurt something out about everyone else's that ever met her, so hopefully those new people she was meeting already knew that about her.

Double standards

Asking other people an endless amount of questions to keep them from questioning you is trying to set expectations of them higher than you want them to set theirs for you (a double standard).

The girl could see and pick at everyone's double standards but her own.
