There are a ton of double standards between men and women. Since I am a man I of course will take the man’s point of view on this issue. I especially notice this double standard between married couples. Since I am a married person I believe I have the authority to speak on the subject. I am going to make every attempt to keep this conversation PG but there are also some R rated subjects that come to mind in this area.
To better understand my points of view I must illustrate the scenario first. Couple is married for 10 years and has a 3 year old child; wife is a stay at home mom; family is experiencing serious financial crisis and is on the verge of losing everything including home because of the trying economic times we are in.
Double Standard #1 – Wife calls everyday while you are working to ask when you are coming home but when she has something to do it is not a priority. When you are in a financial crisis you cannot just drop everything and run home because the wife is bored and wants to dump the kid of to the husband.
