People Are Pointing Out What Double Standards They’re Tired Of (35 Answers)

I agree 100%. Basically we're shamed for being overweight and then ridiculed the second we make ourselves healthier or lose weight. The amount of times I've been smirked at when ordering healthier food or openly laughed at when trying to exercise really does make it harder for me, it's almost like people think we can lock ourselves away for a few weeks and emerge looking like a Disney princess. We don't need everyone to cheer us on and applaud as we work to better ourselves but space and respect are a good place to start

This needs to be at the top. It's so hard to exercise if people are laughing and snickering. Even power walking on the street invites abusive comments

Morbid obesity is dangerous, but so are haters

I've been to several gyms and haven't seen that. On the contrary, overwieght people are admired for their efforts and encouraged. As I was overweight myself, I was prepared with aggresive replies in case someone would have said anything to me or about me... but it was not the case.

I love seeing large/obese people at the gym as I know how hard it is to come through those doors and take your health into your hands.

Religious organisations that encourage less well off to donate to causes but give nothing themselves while enjoying tax exempt status and being worth biilions

Anything good and pure can and has been twisted by evil. There is no denying how many humans have desecrated their religion for personal hubris or power but for every one of those there are 999 who are generally trying to live a Godly life filled with nothing but love. The only thing evil needs to triumph is for a good person* to do nothing. That 1 evil person can cause the crusades while 30 million souls following the same faith are actually following its tenets. I have no problem with condemning that man but please do not condemn the 8 year old girl who wants nothing more than her next door neighbor whose a different color, religion, and nationality to be her friend because she learned compassion at Sunday school.

And paying 0 taxes in the US but using all the same resources as us tax payers. Roads, police, ambulances, schools for their parishioners, etc

I know right?! Christians killing in the name of Jesus? Like have you read the Bible? Jesus teaches love and tolerance...

Welcome to all religions.

Politicians are not for the people, but for themselves, the system is broken, and the people are trapped under a group of bureaucrats getting rich, while society suffers.

Popularity has power. If a racist politician is popular, he'll never get in jail, or anything else that influences their career

Since the US was founded on genocide and slavery, I have absolutely no respect for any politician. Most just pad their pockets with special interest money.

The fact we still do not have term limits in congress says all you need to know about all politicians from both parties. Pelosi being congress over 30 years is a crime

Still pisses me off despite living in Russia my whole life 😠

Yes this is insane, and it makes good teeth even more of a class thing

Also in Denmark. We have free healthcare but f**k you and your teeth! Can get free cancer treatment but if you have periodontitis and loose your teeth, too bad mate pay for yourself. I don't get it

And if a smile is part of my uniform, why is it not paid for by the company?

I have always wondered why we still do this.

Just come to the UK where the NHS takes care of you with no charge

Now that more people are working from home, it's gotten much worse. I often get emails after 11 at night or on the weekends.

I educate people on this regularly. It is as simple as emphasizing that you are assigned a specific schedule and that your duties outside of work REQUIRE punctuality just as much as your employer. We do NOT hesitate to remind them of these facts each and every time. It’s not the employee’s responsibility to ensure coverage for shifts or positions outside of their own, it is the manager and those higher up. NEVER fail to remind them of that in a professional manner, and you will never find yourself being abused in this way again.

Bosses wanting everyone to come back to the office after working from home. Meanwhile, they have the flexibility to come and go from the office as they please.

Oh yes. Try it when you're a volunteer. Hello? I'm not even paid here....
