People Are Pointing Out What Double Standards They’re Tired Of (30 Answers)

Life isn’t fair. Let’s repeat that once more so that everyone hears it, shall we? Life—it really isn’t fair. We certainly don’t live in a world where there’s ‘perfect’ justice everywhere. But, generally speaking, things could definitely be fairer. That’s a sentiment that most of you Pandas probably could get behind. And you wouldn’t be the only ones. Seeing examples of unfairness happen in front of you can really make your blood boil.

Redditors from all around the globe opened up about the double standards they hate the most in a thread on r/AskReddit. Their stories shone a spotlight on the places where society—and humankind—still needs to improve.

Scroll down for the worst double standards out there, Pandas, and share your own thoughts on the topic in the comments below.

Redditor u/MajorInstruction2522, the author of the thread, was kind enough to share her thoughts about double standards and how they impact society. Check out what she told Bored Panda below.

Meanwhile, Bored Panda also got in touch with Psychologist and Wellbeing Specialist Lee Chambers, the founder of Essentialise Workplace Wellbeing, for a chat about dealing with unfairness and the anger that can arise from that. "We are often brought up in a world that suggests fairness is a gold standard, and we should strive for fairness. But the reality is that life isn't fair, and there is little we can do to make it fair, meaning fairness itself isn't a great concept. Awareness of how we react to this unfairness is an important starting point, as we can often let these emotions such as anger, sadness, and disappointment cloud our judgment and make us suffer," he explained to us.

According to the expert, we can try reframing the idea of unfairness happening to us. Instead of seeing ourselves as a victim of unfairness, we can be a survivor of it. This can empower us to accept and move beyond what we can control.

People Are Pointing Out What Double Standards They’re Tired Of (30 Answers) The double standard I despise the most are the people who claim to be "pro-life." No the hell you aren't. You just care about abortions. Once that tiny clump of cells is out of the womb, you couldn't give less of a s**t about what happens to it. They believe every clump of cells is sacred until that clump of cells, turned human, is blasted to literal bits by a gun. There was a little girl at the Uvalde shooting who was identified by her bloodied shirt because her head had exploded due to the bullets of the firearm. However, for her, all she will receive are "thoughts and prayers." Thoughts and prayers do jack s**t for a kid who is dead. No legislation, just words and thoughts sent into the ether.
