The double standards of male/female sexuality

Slag. Hoe. Slut. Loose. Friendly with the crotch.

Whatever word  or term you want to use, it all still means the same thing.

These phrases are regularly used when describing a female who is deemed to be promiscuous by society or even by an individual.

I'm 22 years old currently, and looking back. I have harshly and unfairly used this term, as have many others but it seems like it is becoming more and more acceptable to use these terms in a nonchalant manner.

These kinds of terms are used so frequently these days, especially by males who are doing the exact same (and worse) things  than whatever these females did to gain this name for themselves. 

This brings me to my point - why is there such a significant level of double standards when it comes to male and female sexuality?

A young man can sleep with 100 girls and no-one will bat an eyelid, but a girl who has slept with five guys in a year is seen as or called a "slut'.

A guy can cheat on his girlfriend repeatedly, his girlfriend has sex with someone once, but she is the hoe?

Then the guy will have the cheek to say something to rhe effect of" im a guy it's okay for me to be a hoe, you're a girl, you can't do that." This is complete and utter nonsense!

How can a male who has committed far worse acts dare to sit and judge a female for not doing anything that is unheard of.

If it's not okay for a woman to be promiscuous, then why is it okay for a man to be? Are we not all the same species, basically the same people?

I don't care what other people are doing as long as it's not directly affecting me or reflecting upon me, however men feel it's okay to slut shame when they don't even know a person's full story.

How do you know she wasn't gang-raped or abused, anything could have happened.

If a man can sleep around and do as he pleases then why can't a woman do the same if that is what she really wants to do?

I'm not condoning or excusing anything. I'm just saying, people should not be so quick to label females with these horrible names if they are not perfect themselves. 

Nobody is perfect so stop acting like you are or as if the Y chromosome within you makes it okay to put your penis into anything with a pulse.

Men are very judgemental when it comes to these things and it shouldn't be regarded as "boye will be boys," but "hoes gon be hoes."

Parents with both sons and daughters shouldn't let something slide for their boy but come down on the girl for the same things, you're just teaching her that she can't do the same as somebody else but then you want her to be treated equally like everyone else, right?

If an adult decides they want to do certain things with their body then surely that is up to them?

I know things are probably never gonna change but it's so unfair, especially when the person being given a name isn't even promiscuous!
