Cultural Double-Standards
Gay men are fit to love.
Straight men are fit to curse.
Save the trees.
Save the whales.
Save the seals.
Save the vile criminal.
**** the innocent fetus.
Bush is hated for starting a war.
Obama is loved for perpetuating it.
Hating a black man
Is racism,
Despite his own actions towards you.
Hating a white man?
Expected.
Smiled upon.
Black Power?
Okay.
*******?
Damnable.
A *******?
Fit to marry.
A Gentleman?
Fit to trample.
A man courting a woman?
Accepted.
A woman courting a man?
Strange, unheard of.
Not trying to be political.
Not trying to be partial.
Just trying to be social.
