double standard
My roommate and I just went to dinner with a male friend of ours. He was talking about his problems with a girl he's seeing and whatnot. Eventually we just started talking about relationships in general and how there is such a double standard between guys and girls. Is so much of a double standard that it's really sickening. If a girl has sex with 5 guys she's a whore; but if a guy has sex with 5 girls he's idolized. I'm not trying to say a girl that has sex with tons of guys should be seen as innocent or that it's ok. But certainly if a guy does the same thing it shouldn't be acceptable. Our friend was telling us like where he would draw the line with a girl and it kind of rubbed us the wrong way. Like a guy won't do certain things with a girl, but if se refused to do them, they would be furious. It really just kind of pisses me off. I don't know where guys thought it was ok to treat women like the only reason they are around is to please men. Women should be treated like princesses. I think guys feel that since girls are more sensitive and emotional that they can just walk all over us. Of course, I'm not speaking for all men, because there's a handful of good ones. And everyone slips up. But really, guys, girls don't need that much to be happy. Just be honest and faithful and pay attention to the little things. It's just really not that hard, and I don't understand why guys don't get it. I really just think they aren't that smart. No, I'm just kidding, but really. Treat women like they deserve to be treated and don't encourage that double standard. It only makes things worse.

i totally agree with you on this emily its so true how it goes with you hetero's but listen it's worse in the gay world where even if you don't hook up with a lot of people simply because your gay people think your a whore in a sense. does that make sense. but yeah on top of all that i love how the girl who has the boyfriend who treatsher like a princess is the one writting this lol.
Yea, I agree, but I know where guys get that idea from!....GUYS! ha...Its all about their reputation, ego, and pride. If they are refused, it hurts their pride, and they can't have that! I think it is very dumb! BOYS also feel that they have to brag about what they do to their guy friends! It makes them seem more cool. I don't see why they feel as if they have to keep up with the rest of their friends. Guess the world is FULL of FOllowers and not enough LEADERS!!
