- mc32 10y agoWhile it's true, if it were a single standard, men tend to be even more coarse toward each other, so in this case, the double standard is a bit more mellow --now, perhaps some people would just have one standard and that is their standard. Men will get the "man up", "grow a pair", "relax", "you'll get over it", "are you gonna pussy out on me?" etc. It's a hard problem --and unless you go for rigidity in the workplace, we're always going to have regular human issues (not company issues) permeate the workplace --be it office romance, cajoling, hijinks, etc.
