15. But there's more
Talkin' 'bout a double standard
According to feminists, women suffer under a double standard. Women experience discrimination and unfair treatment no matter what they do. How terrible. What an injustice.
But wait a second. Is it possible that there is indeed a double standard but that it operates in the OPPOSITE way? Ooohhh Yeah!!
Here are 15 reasons (count 'em) why it is really men who live under the tyranny of a double standard.
1. woMenstruation: (only women bleet)
Women have the right to do anything men do but to adopt all the frailties that used to make women unsuited to do those jobs.
Tough and yet vulnerable, a picture of a pin-up girl in the men's locker room causes a feminist untold pain and suffering for which she deserves to be compensated thousands of dollars. Yet she is just as strong as men, mentally and physically when it comes to getting promotions in responsible positions.
Feminists can do anything, but they still get the day off when they have their periods. In Australia, at several universities women now get up to 12 days off per year to scream at their boyfriends and husbands. And all at taxpayer expense!

2. Clothing as straightjacket
In the business world men must wear a suit to work. While there are some slight variations, the suit is basically a uniform that depersonalises men. Not only that, but the tie often chokes the neck and men must have a short-back-and-sides haircut.
On the other hand women are being represented increasingly in the business world and can wear whatever they like: colourful and sexy clothes, miniskirts, free flowing dresses, pants or high heels.... They can wear camisoles with boobies popping out. They can also have their hair any way they like, long or short, dyed red or purple. They can wear earrings and bangles and nose studs and necklaces and hair ties and toe rings. But as a male executive, don't dare to ask them to fetch a coffee.
3. And vibrator makes three
When men buy pornographic magazines feminists are full of contempt. They're just wank mags. Aren't men gross, wanking over pictures of compliant women. It's perfectly disgusting.
These same feminists usually have a vibrator in the cupboard and when asked about this reply that they use one because men can't satisfy their needs. It's perfectly healthy and normal for a woman to have a vibrator. Oh, and what do they fantasise about in order to get off: dolphins of course!
4. Today a babe....tomorrow a vixen
Feminists reserve for themselves the biggest doublestandard of all. This is where they sexually exploit men and then condemn men for their sexual weakness.
Gloria Steinem for example helped to generate her fame by working as a Playboy bunny in its early days and publishing an article on the experience, berating this profession despite confessing that it gave a good income to the women. The same stunt was pulled by Germaine Greer. She had an article published in Playboy magazine in which she was given an opportunity to spout her vitriol against men.
In Seduction is a four letter word, Playboy January 1973, reprinted in The mad woman's underclothes, Essays and Occasional Writings, (Pan Books, London, 1986): 156.
5. Sexism: not hard for you
Way back in the oppressive 1970s we had a liberalising regime in regard to sexual expression. We could see beautiful women and their bodies used to advertise all kinds of products. But this was considered sexist. In fact any time men get pleasure out of seeing women, especially naked, it is sexist. What is also sexist is any ad depicting women in a compromised or potentially humiliating position, such as washing dishes. However ads are constantly appearing these days making men look stupid and humiliated. One recently showed two female airline inspectors doing a strip search on a male passenger. Don't get me wrong. It was funny.
And take a look at the photo at the top of this page, taken from a mainstream women's magazine. Try doing that in a MAINSTREAM men's magazine and the edition will be pulped. In fact this happened a few years ago when PICTURE magazine depicted a woman on the cover in a dog collar.
6. Violence: because men are so frustrating
A man should never, ever, ever hit a woman...even in self defence. He shouldn't even use force to restrain her. However women don't need to be told this because women are never violent except when they have too much male energy. It all means that none of their mild and low level violence is ever noticed. This includes for example frequent slapping, pinching, cajoling, whinging, berating and chastising of men for whatever tiny infraction of social propriety men have committed. This is absolutely normal and justified because, after all, men are so annoying.
Addendum: while many women probably do not use any kind of physical expressions of punisment or anger, my own experiences and observations indicate that about 50% do...or maybe I just pick all the wrong women.
7. Crime: "I shot him, pow pow pow"
Only men and male energy are the source of violence and so women never kill except in self defence. That is why so many female murderers are never even detected. Take this example. A woman killed her husband with a shotgun while he was sleeping. She left the house to bury the gun in the middle of the night and reported his mysterious murder the next day to police. Nothing was done and yet for the next several years she boasted killing him to a variety of people. "I shot him, pow pow pow. He had it coming." No one took it seriously, until a new lover finally reported his suspicions to police. And of course then she came out with the "battered woman" defence.

8. Men should leave women alone except when they are older
Feminists constantly complain about sexual harrassment even when they are not actually being harrassed. This includes men opening doors for them, calling them 'lady', staring at their titties, when they wear low cut dresses, and generally admiring their beauty. Men are so annoying and patriarchal. We wish they'd leave us alone.
But when feminists reach 40 or 50, do you know what they hate? Society is so cruel to older women. Older women are ignored by men and they don't get enough attention. Why aren't older women considered sexy. Men are so annoying and patriarchal. We wish they'd pay some attention.
9. Censorship: the feminist Praetorians
Because we live in a patriarchal society men have all the power and that includes the media. This is of course why we need special women's representation and concessions so that the media is full of feminist ideology. Universities often go even further and have a feminist edition of their newspaper: Wymmin's Edition. But men are so annoying they want a men's edition too when we know that all editions are really men's edition. So we'll ban the men's edition in the interests of public decency.
That's what happened at the University of Technology when an attempt was made to run a male edition of the newspaper. Full story here.

10. Honey, are you finished yet?
She wants equal pay and equal status and equal career path and equal education. But when it comes to the bathroom she wants to hog it for an hour when the show is starting in 20 minutes. She wants to spend half the night on the phone to her grilfriends and she wants to eat ALL the chocolates!
(Sorry this entry was totally gratuitous.)
11. I never said fat...honest...pleeease!
Feminists claim that the prehistoric rotund figure of the Venus of Willendorf is an important fertility symbol from an era when women were still respected. She is representative of true beauty from a period in human evolution when there was female power and peace and spirituality and women weren't being objectified and blah blah blah....
So I said to her..."Well I'm glad to hear that, because you're looking like the Venus a little more every day."
Thwack! POW! #?!&% Blam! Ouch!!
And then I rediscovered doublestandard Number 6. Never describe your wife or girlfriend as "Willendorfian"!
12. Are you promiscuous yet?
When men are called promiscuous they get a little glimmer in their eye and brush their fingernails on their shirt pocket. (Might as well)
When women get called promiscuous they can sue the person who said it, even though we live in a feminist era of equality. For example on March 4, 1999 a Judge decreed a $277,000 compensation payment against the publisher of Bob Ellis who had claimed in a book that the wife of the Australian federal treasurer, had...cover your ears...slept with another man once.
13. Prophylacticogyny
I was having sex with my girlfriend the other day (o.k. so it was really over a year ago I last had nooky) and she bawled, "why is it that women are always responsible for safe sex? Why can't men take responsibility!?! Why isn't there a male pill? Men are such insensitive, irresponsible bastards!#@?!
Then the following week she went through my wallet and found a condom inside it. She bawled, "Why are men so promiscuous? How dare you carry a condom. Why can't men control themselves! Why are men such cheating, irresponsible bastards?!#&!
14. An exercise in sexism
Laws against sex discrimation have been protecting women from patriarchy for at least 30 years. Men can't exclude women. They can't have men-only clubs. They can't have men-only bars. Women are entitled to everything men have and do.
Yet, for the last 2000 years women have been getting stuff men aren't entitled to and that's not considered discrimination. Women don't have to fight in wars. They don't pay tax on tampons. They even have their own clubs that men can't go to. Like women-only health clubs that openly discriminate. And there's laws to enforce that women's privilege.
In Australia... She's got wood. Fernwood
And in America... She's got a post. GymPost
Is't that discrimination. No its just modern hypocrisy. Get over it you male fossil.
15. But there's more....
I'm sure there will be more examples to add here in time. It seems a little cruel to press the point and no malice is intended toward women in general. But it has been necessary in the current social climate to emphasise that some men can give as good as they get. Women should not see themselves as victims when they are the sex mostly privileged by men.
