Sexually adventurous people are a risk to be with sexually

Boys should like blue, Girls should like pink
Boys should play with cars, girls dolls
Boys should play physical sports (soccer, football, karate)

"Sally Girls" (or sissy boys) are weak and deviant.
Girls should learn to cook
Boys should learn business
Girls can where boy clothes, boys cannot were girl clothes
Girls should -like- dresses
Women should care for children, men should work

Jobs-

Men work harder then women.

Social assistance is for the lazy/cheaters only

The misconception that just because someone wants to do more then missionary in bed that they must "risky partner" bringing the chance of disease... that person may be the patron 'saint' of safe sex.

That was about clear as mud... sorry.
 
Are there some controlling people in your life? If so, that may be why you're sick of imposed standards. Come outside the box.

Just because "I" don't enjoy/ am scared off/ don't find appealing this stuff,
doesn't mean "I" need to condemn everybody else who's finding it exciting.

double standards are social contructs often based on societal roles and expectations
