***Double Standard (definition)- a set of principles that applies differently and usually more rigorously to one group of people or circumstances than to another ; especially : a code of morals that applies more severe standards of sexual behavior to women than to men.***

So, there it is. The definition of double standard.  A friend and I were talking about this double standard mess the other day. Does it still exist in 2009? And are women wrong for taking on more "habits" that men are supposed to hold? 

My friend got a call the other day from a cutie that said, “Man, you think so much like a dude, you need to stop.” Now I’m not going to get all into my friend’s personal life, but it appears to me that a majority of women in the 21st century are all for treating men the way men treat women---with absolutely no regrets! The mentality is to sleep with men outside of a relationship, and not expect much out of them (i.e booty calls, jump off, etc).  Some men are cool with that and keep it movin’, while other men seem to get all hurt by a woman treating them like a jump off (forgetting that they’ve treated about 20 previous women the same way). After some good sexin’, the man may turn around, give you that puppy eyed look and say, “…We need to talk.” And that’s when you roll your eyes and think to yourself, “WTF, can you leave already?”

Is it completely wrong for a woman to have a men’s mentality nowadays? What is this double standard that it’s okay for men to sleep with “X” amount of random women, but we as women  are afraid to say we’ve slept with more than “3” men. (And any woman that tells you she’s been with 3 men is a lie anyway….she’s not counting the ones she regrets).
