i hope this kind of makes sense
this is pertaining to the double standards of women and men, and certain characteristics we both share, but are called on differently. I'm just putting this out there for the sake of it, and its relevence to our conversation today. For my example (since we disscussed gold diggers and their sexual differences) i choose to comment on the difference between male and female promiscuity. It first occured to me the different standards for the sexs' promiscuity in a song's lyrics (whose name escapes me). How is it that a promiscuous man gets respect for having multiple sexual encounters with random women (or men w.e), and a woman is belittled and called a whore? Why should one situation be different from the other?

i feel that its the same reason we frown upon men who are married to the women making the money. times are changing but there are still some traditions that have stayed. men should be making the money, and women 'should' wait till marriage, or at least not be as vocal about any partners they may have occured. idk. i have feel i see it from 2 different perceptions.men & women should be equal. but then this leads to women want to be 'equal' but yet still have the privledges of being a women. the girl is not going to be asked to carry this, pick that up. and idk, for me at least i like being a girl. its nice when a guy holds the door open for me or w/e. i dont see men as eager to help other men as they do to women. so how equal are we? & do we really want to be totally equal?.... i kinda wish some more guys were part of this class to see hear their opinion on this stuff.
Hey Mad, the song is the Little Kim part of the Christina Agulera song "Cant Hold us down"
