Friday, 9 January, 2026
Double standards are everywhere, in relationships, work, politics, money, parenting, and social norms. Everyone claims to hate them, but many still benefit from them.In this episode of SipTalk, we break down some of the most common double standards people complain about, defend, ignore, or conveniently overlook. We talk about why they exist, when they’re genuinely unfair, and when they’re actually practical or even necessary.This isn’t a rant episode.
