my view on gender double standards

I chose to write about this topic because it really upset me how their are such different standards and expectations for men and women. Although it always seems like the woman is judged more harshly than a man ( I'm not saying there arn't unfair judgments of men because there are, but there are more for women) . I always wonder why are some things ok for men but not for women? Why is a woman a hoe if she sleeps around, but why are men just being men? Why in the court system, a man is charged differently, more harshly,  than a woman? Why do men still earn more money than woman? These questions seem unimportant in day to day life, but never the less it still really irritates me. I am not an extreme feminist nor do i hate men, simply i would like to see a little more equality.
