Mine is gender roles in the work place. Women are often allowed to get out of labor tasks where males are tasked specifically for them.

I don't ask a 110 lb woman to lift a bed or chest of drawers up 4 floors of stairs. But she could at least carry the drawers. I wouldn't expect a 110 lb man to do it either.

Who is it not amigo? Men wre selected for labor and women were left out.

Double standards also violate the principle of justice known as impartiality, which is based on the assumption that the same standards should be applied to all people, without regard to subjective bias or favoritism based on social class, rank, ethnicity, gender or other distinction. A double standard violates this principle by holding different people accountable according to different standards.

Brenda I agree with you. That is why she has a "headache" : )

Cutewriter, thats teh reason that prompted me to ask this question. I knew it would surface. And I aree, men just don't want to give up the power.
It must be ego.

How about the one where women get paid 70-80 percent of what a man earns?

But at the same time women are also assigned different tasks that no one would dream of expecting a man to do. Things like pick up the bosses dry cleaning, make his coffee and purchase the
supplies for the office. No one would dream of asking the male assistant to pick up a gift for the wife or girlfriends birthday or send flowers to their mother for Mothers Day.

The one double standard that I would get rid of is the one that says a Woman should be able to do it all. We are expected to work full time, make a good income, keep a clean home,cook healthy, nutritious meals(preferably from scratch) raise good kids and always be ready for romance after all the rest is done. No one expects the man to pick up prescriptions on his lunch hour, schedule his work hours around dentist appointments, take off from work every time one of the kids is sick. That is all the moms job.

I don't like the way people get all cheesed off when blackbirds eat off their feeders. They'll sit there and ooh and ahh while Cardinals and Blue Grosbeaks and a gaggle of Ground Roasted FudgeTwits stuff their beaks and bellies to the busting point, but if a grackle or starling or crow parks his carcass on the perch they go squalking and grab the hose and run them off.

Nobody does nothing about this rampant avian racism. Where be Johnny Cockrock when you need him!

Dead. That's where! They got him with the hose!

not sure if this is a double standard, but why is it that a woman is a wh*re for sleeping around but a guy is a pimp for it?
