When you simply blame a socially constructed "double standard" you admit defeat and accept it as unchangeable. It's completely in your hands to change that on a personal level.

My problem with the double standard is that deciding someone's current value based on their past is ludicrous. You don't know a potential partner's life experience. Their values and priorities can change. There are so many extenuating circumstances and the human experience should allow us to grow and learn from one another.
I find it so ironic that many here have stated in previous threads that they didn't feel it necessary to "tell all" to their partners, yet something so personal to each of us is important to know before sleeping with someone new.
