I agree with Ed about beeing taken advantage of with car repairs. It happend to me..My son has a friend in CT. who works for Ford Motor Company and now I always ask him first what the problem could be. He is always right and it has saved me many headaches. I also no longer use the repair shops that have ripped me off .There is a doublesandard. Men usually dont have that problem, because they know more about a car,than a woman.

Not so much anymore, it's a relatively even playing field. Women have certain advantages in some areas, while men had advantages in others. It's just that women seem to complain more. LOL, take care.

I agree there are double standards in many ways. Let a woman release gas anywhere near ears length aand God forbid...I've had incidents in a motorbike shop where I actually had to get a man go to bat for me, they put a tire on my bike that was rubbing the frame and it was also put on backwards, the arrow was pointing the wrong way.

I'm with @Jenn, I don't understand what is meant by "double standards" between men and women......

In my experience women are never satisfied , they are forever speaking of equality , which they do not seem to understand the meaning of . The form of equality which they speak of is the form of equality in which they' re the people in charge and men do as they are told it's a form of equality similiar to marriage . Have a nice day young lady lol

There are definitely double standards, some glaringly obvious and others that are subtle, but they still exist and I personally notice a very real difference in my work place particularly.Just a quick example is the female staff change and shower male clients, however male staff are rarely expected to change or shower female clients,only a tiny illustration for what I feel to be a large problem, we are paid the same, why not perform the same tasks ?

For example when I used to go to nightclubs the women could cut in line the mens restroom and guys wouldn't say a word, it a man tried to use the ladies room there would be screaming and all hell would break loose. This is just one small example.
Now a days women can do anything a man can do, they may get strange looks or resistance, but times have changed in most countries.
