Its Alright...But Its Not Ok...

So for my 2nd post, I decided to touch a nerve with both males and females......i'm gonna take on the topic of "double standards" as they are seen from the point of view of both males and females.  Yup, gettin a lil anxious already to see whats about to transpire aren't you? Well, you should be.  Of course, the way i choose to display these differences may be humorous, but keep in mind that i'm just keeping it real...based on my experiences and the experiences of others...

Male: Its alright for me to see someone else while in a relationship, but its not ok for her to have male friends.

Female: Its alright for me to have a guy best friend and keep our encounters a secret, but its not ok for him to have a female best friend at all.

Male: Its alright for me to refer to another female as "baby", but its not ok for her to allow another guy to refer to her as such.

Female: Its alright for me to allow a man who is interested to wine and dine me, but its not ok for my significant other to so much as chill at mcdonalds with a female coworker.

Male: Its alright for me to date more than one female at a time, but its not ok for her to even look at another man.

Female: Its alright for me to question everything he does, but its not ok for him to want to know where i've been.

Male: Its alright for me to go to a strip club with the fellas, but its not ok for her to go see male dancers with her girls.

Female: Its alright for me to go out of town and not call my man while im gone, but its not ok for him to not answer my calls when he goes out of town.

Male: Its alright for me to not want sex from her, but its not ok for her to deny me sex.

Female: Its alright for me to ignore him when im upset, but its not ok for him to cut me off when he's upset.

Male: Its alright for me to spend the night at a female's place, but its not ok for her to have male company at all at hers.

Female: Its alright for me to tell my girls about what hes doing wrong, but its not ok for him to put me on blast with his fellas.


Now obviously, this is just a sample list of double standards most of us have encountered.  Don't take them personal, but if you do, then you must be guilty,lol. But seriously...are any of these acceptable in your opinion.....why or why not??
