    Wow, that’s some intense double standards there.

    That’s an odd way of saying “ubiquitous female standards”.

      I know it’s a bit different, but there are cis women out there knowingly dating trans women who’ve likely had sex with men. So common yet, but I think ubiquitous isn’t accurate.

      Actually now that I’m thinking about it I knew a girl who hooked up with her gay guy best friend.

        I wasn’t commenting on this particular double standard anywhere as much as double standards in general; especially those which are almost exclusively one-way and “acceptable” for only women to hold. That a man trying to employ the same attitudes would be pilloried and castigated to the same degree that women would be lauded and supported.
