In this day and age of feminism and “wokeness,” it’s sometimes hard to believe that double standards still exist. At least, I’ve heard that’s the case if you’re a man.
If you’re a woman, these 10 incidents probably aren’t going to surprise you. But they’re still going to make you mad.
“Search my bag as I leave the store? How about all the older people than myself that you let stroll on by without bag checking?
At my workplace the only people I’ve ever seen shoplift or attempt to shoplift are those over 50.”
“Anything involving politics. Obama/Hillary does a thing the right goes nuts, Trump/Bush did the same thing the right makes excuses. The left does the same thing. They are so oblivious to their hypocrisy it is maddening. Or they excuse their parties actions because the other party did it before or still does it. If it is wrong it is wrong no matter which side does it ffs!”
“Someone being able to poke fun at you but then can’t handle it when they’re the one being poked fun at back.”
“As someone whos underweight and has a hard time gaining weight, nothing pisses me off like how people feel its okay to make fun of my weight, body proportions, etc. But god forbid the same was done for someone overweight.”
“My father is always yelling at us (don’t worry, I’m 17 and almost out of here), but when I (or really anyone) tries to talk to him, he gets angry and accuses me of having “an attitude”. I get that I need to stay calm and all, and I do. But for real. Am I really the one with an attitude here?”
“Woman taking care of her children without her partner = nothing special.
Man taking care of his children without his partner = babysitting.
A man taking care of his own children is doing nothing more special, heroic, or out his range of normal skills and duties than a woman. You don’t “babysit” your own children.”
“Nobody bats an eye when my dog takes a dump in the middle of a park while staring at a group of kids, but everyone loses their minds when I do it”
“Most girls are okay with being in a relationship where the guy is more financially or academically or whatever successful, but most guys are uncomfortable and intimidated if the tables are turned.”
“Woman: here are things about you I don’t like, you need to change.
Man: Ok, here are some things you should change.
Woman: if you can’t accept me for who I am then maybe we shouldn’t be together.”
“Stereotypes are bad.”
“Everyone from the South are a bunch of hillbilly racist KKK Nazis.”

There are a lot of opinions out there when it comes to gun violence, ownership, and mass casualty events in the United States. And while some of them focus on the guns themselves or access to mental health, comedian Michael Ian Black thinks we should be looking toward a different culprit – a culture of toxic masculinity that is robbing boys and young men of the opportunity to develop healthy outlooks on the world around them.
He explains why in this series of 8 poignant tweets:
Whatever your opinion, it’s definitely food for thought!

No one likes to admit when they’re wrong. Even worse? When you have to admit you were wrong and your parents were right.
Now, most of us got over this particular uncomfortable moment when we hit that magical age somewhere in our twenties and realized our parents were more right than wrong, but for these twelve people, it came as a rather rude awakening.
“Don’t start smoking, it’s addicting and expensive”
Oh I wish I listened to them”
“When they warned me how easy it is to stay in a comfortable situation rather than the right one.
Wasted a lot of time because I was cozy with the routine, then I looked up and realize I had spent 3 years being comfortable.”
“A little while after I had finally got my ex out of my life for good. They had been against our relationship from day one. My mum enjoyed that conversation.”
“You really shouldn’t spend money if it’s not in your bank account (credit cards).”
“As a kid, I was always fascinated – obsessed, even – with being an adult. Being college educated, living on my own, making my own money, etc.
My parents always told me, “Don’t wish your life away. Adult life isn’t as easy and fun as it looks!”
I’ve since learned that is a severe understatement.”
“This isn’t that exciting but when I was 17 I didn’t know what I wanted to do after high school. I was a little shit back then. My mom tried to convince me to take the paralegal program at a community college and I was like hell no. Welp, 8 years later I ended up in the paralegal degree program and loved it. Idk how she knew I’d like it so much. Especially back then.”
“That addiction and alcoholism runs in the family. I thought that because I’d seen what it did to them (and other family members), I’d be able to outsmart the addiction…Luckily, I was able to recognize the signs early on and get help, and nothing really got out of control, but I realize I’ve still got it. If you gave me a drink, I’d just not stop.”
“ you keep trying do do wheelies on your dirt bike your going to break a leg”
“Take care of your teeth.”
“If it sounds too good to be true, it is.”
“‘Look the part then learn your lines’.
In other words, focus on appearances initially because people judge you on first impressions. If you’ve nailed the body language, tone, eye contact and dress; you can figure out what you’re doing after the fact.”
“i grew up in quite a rough neighbourhood between the ages of 4-11, kinda place that drug deals went down, used condoms everywhere and just rough people all over the place. one day, i think i was about 6 years old, i wanted to go to the local park so my dad looked out our window to check it out (our flat overlooked the park) and said no as there were some dodgey looking folk hanging about there but agreed to let me play outside the front of our building. i had no intention of doing that and instead went over to the park like i wanted and started playing, this caused the 2 guys (who were both drinking) to keep looking over at me until they eventually approached me and kept cornering me so i couldn’t escape.
i started panicking but they told me to shut up otherwise they were gunna hit me and one of them grabbed ahold of me. thats when my dad came over like mufasa from lion king and hit one of the guys and kept pushing the other one. the guys were pretty drunk but backed up immediatly when my dad was there. my dad was super angry and it was the first time i’d ever heard him swear but yeah, the guys f*cked off and my dad took me home.
he was absolutely livid with me for going over to the park after telling me not too but he knew i would, turns out he’d actually followed me over and was watching the whole thing anyway, he didn’t expect the guys to get physical with me which is why he was so angry with them but he did expect them to try and bother me, he wanted me to learn a lesson about stranger danger lol. it worked though as i never did anything stupid like that again.”

My personal submission for this topic is “everything happens for a reason.”
It’s that easy, eh? I think not.
Someone will always have it worse than you, but that doesn’t mean you’re not allowed to be upset when things go poorly, ffs.
What if I’m headed in the wrong direction?
Unless your friend hocking that crap has an M.D. or a degree in nutrition, take their advice with a grain of salt.

Oh, you’re on fire? It’s stop hurting in a minute.
Look, shopping isn’t fun for everyone. Not only that, but some of us prefer to decompress in front of a television or with a book, not at a club with music so loud you can’t hear yourself think.
Who am I supposed to blame, exactly? And what happened to own your mistakes?
If you say this to me and don’t get a middle finger in response, I’m having an exceptionally good day.
