Societal Double Standards That Boil People's Blood

There's no question that life is unfair. But maybe the question we should be asking is "why does life have to be so unfair in such ridiculously specific ways?" If people used a little critical thinking on a daily basis, we wouldn't be in this situation, but obviously that's too much for us. So instead, we all float through life, aware of, and constantly dealing with infuriating double standards across all level of society.

But since it's virtually impossible to make every instance of "being a double-standard-having jerk" illegal, we are left with the personal responsibility of having to be more sympathetic to others on a one-to-one basis. Seeing someone be praised or punished for your exact behavior is absolutely infuriating, and the amount of mental hoops one has to jump through to land on "well it's different for them because they're not you" is annoying as hell. Maybe the one constant is that double standards are something that affects every single one of us. Maybe.
