As for double standards, how about this: Women want equal treatment. They say so all the time. Equal pay for equal work, the right to join the military, to vote, to be elected officials, and so forth. But if you go on a date with a girl, and don't pick up the check, then you can forget about ever going out with her again. And do women ever open doors for men? Or pull out a man's chair? Why are men the ones that have to call the women? Why do women get dropped off at the curb, and the man has to park the car, and walk half a mile, in pouring rain? Now don't get me wrong; I'm not bashing women. I love women. I just wanted to point out the other side of it. There are double standards for both sexes. Unfortunately, that's just the way of the world. [ 02-08-2004: Message edited Superhero ] __________________ Et quacunque viam dederit fortuna sequamur. | |||

For me, I like being the protector, one of my favorite chats was when Sarah said to me "i love it that your so protective of me" I will do all the chivalrious things i can, but if in general talking she expresses a dislike for it, then i'll not do it as much, if she makes a gesture to pay, i'll reject, but if she even slightly precists, i'll let her. Basically trying twice. I'm all for equal everything, but i still like playing the role of provider and protector. __________________ "Talk hard, I like that.

Seriously I hope there has been a change when it comes to equal rights. I know it is happening very slowly. I mean I have no problem picking up the cheque, driving, calling a guy whatever. I wish more girl's were like myself. But come one imagine if a couple were on a date and the girl pulled out the chair for her boyfriend! The guy have no respect, he'd be made fun of. Guy's would not like that to happen they like to be considered the guy. We make it hard for each sex. Also just because a girl could sleep with more guys does not mean it happens. I know for a fact that no 'decent' girl would do that and are very picky when it comes to guys and that is just with who they date. So I still say that girls and guys sleep with the same amount - Just because girls could doesn't mean they do. I was in a bar last week and some guy grabbed my ass and said "Hey baby wanna go out back" and gave me a wink and I rolled my eyes and walked off no harm done. But he keept yelling things and him and his friends were being dicks. My buddies Sean, Chris and Adam were getting pretty pissed with them and wanted to kick the crap out of him. The guys then were saying how coz I was a girl I couldn't look after myself and I had to get boys to stick up for me. I yelled back and said "***** you Mr. I can handle myself perfectly well I just choose to ignore losers" and I got called a loud mouth 'Bi!ch' for that. WTF? __________________ I told you i was trouble, yeah you know that I'm no good. icon | |||

| There are always going to be double standards. It's because we are raised differently and precieved differently in the media. The media has a huge impact on how the world is today. And if you think about the beginning of time....men and woman have always been different. I mean...when a girl cries...comofort her and make her feel better...when a guy cries...they are thought of as babies and that they shouldn't cry. Girls can wear skirts and dresses...guys can't...we'll always be different and I don't think we'll ever be the same and we shouldn't be. Our minds are completely different and there will never be complete equality between men and women...there will always be double standards. __________________ “If you enter this world knowing you are loved and you leave this world knowing the same, then everything that happens in between can be dealt with.” Michael Jackson | |||

Simply because most guys only care about sex. Why do guys go to parties? To hook up with girls, it's sad. Why do I go to parties? To have fun. Complete difference. And the girl is always the slut. One double standard my friend was just talking about the other day was when someone asked if she had slept with this guy she was dating yet. She answered, "if I say 'no' I'm a prude, if I say 'yes' I'm a slut," girls can never win. Lots of Love! Heathyr __________________ TEH LJ! I'm on hold and waiting for the stars to align.

| A guy has to work so hard for it, that when it's offered, it's gladly accepted. Sad but true. __________________ "Talk hard, I like that. It's like a dirty thought in a nice clean mind. " | |||

| Some, yes. Picky who are eyeing up one guy in particular, and that is usualyl when she is totally not his type. For instance, If i walk up in a club, and I glance over and I see you have a cancer stick between your lips, game over. You have to come with some pretty strong creditials to crack my defenses. Maybe that impossible mission guy. Otherwise, a wink and a smile and a guy is butter. __________________ "Talk hard, I like that. It's like a dirty thought in a nice clean mind. " | |||

| Once I see the cancer stick my glance immediately is directed elsewhere. I refuse, absolutely refuse, to date a guy who smokes. __________________ TEH LJ!
