I'm doing a controversial paper on the double standards of men and women. What is your take?
Feel free to list an example or two from today's society.

Very unfair...!
Men get paid more than a woman who has the same experience and educational background as the man in the same job.
Men sleeps around, he's a stud. A women, she's a s***.
Men who are, controversial, opinionated and are strong willed are are seen as a leader. A woman, she's a b****.
Men with gray hair and wrinkled, he's distinguished. Women with gray hair, she's old.
More acceptable to see an older man with a very young woman. Not so acceptable, for an older woman to be with a much younger man.
Just a few examples...

Woman claims sexual harassment and the guy is automatically guilty. A guy claims sexual harassment and his career is over.
Make fun of Muslims on national TV and the press will crucify you. Mock other religions and you get hired by democratic presidential canidates.
Obese women are gross, while obese guys are just "heavy"
Guys are allowed to sleep around, and they're players. Women sleep around and they're whores.
Say the Mexicans should have to learn English and you're racist. Say the US government employees have to learn Spanish and you get reelected.

Democrats and liberals do it all the time.
Obama said he wouldn't run for president. Then he does.
Hillary made mention of support of the war. Then she opposes it.
a republican can text message a sexual remark and lose his job. A Democrat can have homosexual sex with a underaged person and get re-elected. (Rep. Studs, recently deceased)
The biggest today:
"I support the troops" but not the war. How can you support the troops but not what they do?

Men get to be promiscuous. Girls don't.
Women get to lie about their age, income, and height. Men don't.

My opinion is to live by yourself then you don't have to listen to anyone's standards but your own.
