               There is a very big double standard of society with men and women. A guy could have sex with so many girls and then he brags about it and apparently this makes him a man. If a girl has sex with a lot of guys, she gets called a slut. I don't think I have ever heard a guy get called a slut though. Even more amazing though is the guy who sleeps with such a woman and labels her a hoe the next day while he acted in the same manner she did (retrieved from drdapo.com, 2010).



                 A man sleeping around with several women will get a pat on the back from his boys whereas a woman enjoying her single life is gossiped about endlessly by members of her gender (retrieved from drdapo.com, 2010). In other words the guy gets all the glory the more girls he can have sex with, meanwhile a girl could do the same and her name gets slandered. Why can't the girl get a pat on the back? I mean, it's one thing if she's cheating, but what if she's single? I don't understand why the guy can get away with it and the girl gets named.
