I was talking with my dad about somebody we know and he said that he is probably somewhere with some random girl since he did not answer his phone. I just replied that "oh so he is still like that.." and then he goes "well he is still young so he is allowed to do stuff like that, let him have fun". Ah hell no! I have nothing against the action. My concern is the double-standard. If I would have went on telling my dad that well I might live like that too or I might go around doing stuff like that also, you think he would have been like that? "Yeah but you are young! Have fun with different guys!".
HA! No.
He'd probably say how wrong it is for a girl to act like that and that maybe I should settle down.
I am not just saying that it would only be my dad who thinks like this, because in my case it is his job - I'll admit to that. But it's common for people to think that it's ok - and sometimes even cool - for a man to have one night stands or to have several women that he is "playing" at the same time. But god forbid if a woman tells you she woke up at some random guys apartment and then just left, or that she is texting with three men at the same time. You are going to smile but in your mind you are thinking "SLUT". Don't EVEN try to deny this. So many are guilty of doing this. Even I might have thought like it sometimes, but not anymore. Just because it's unfair that it's 2013 and this has not changed. I'm totally not saying that it is ok to act like it - man or woman, but just that it should be looked at in the same way despite of your sex.
