Double Standards

Honestly, this is a really big topic for me, especially growing up in the community and generation that I'm growing up in now. Double standards were put there by a guy because he was either mad or just sad at a female. Double standards is a thing that degrades and minimizes a females chance at the world while the guy gets all the good stuff. For example, I have a female friend who loves hanging with guys for whatever reason, whether females start too much drama and/or she just likes the vibe that guys don't really care what's going on. So anyways, she gets called a whore and a thot (Thot is a Boston term for That Hoe Over There) just because she hangs around a lot of guys. Next, I have a friend who is a guy, and hangs with a lot of females. While he's with these females, he like to flirt and touch and other stuff WHILE HE HAS A GIRL. Now, when he got called out on it, they told him, "You're the man!". Now explain to me why a female can't chill with a bunch of guys WITHOUT flirting or doing anything wrong, but the guy could flirt, touch, kiss, and maybe even have sex with another female WHILE HE HAS A GIRLFRIEND?... We take these things way too lightly. Same thing in sports; females dance in short skirts and tight shirts to entertain a crowd while the men portray these heroic athletic people. But what about when the females are playing, and portraying heroic athletic people? Where are the men to dance around in shorts and tight shirts to feel how degraded the women feel when men are calling out to them making them worthless?
