Is the woman who flashes her crotch at a bar evaluated in the same way as a man who flashes his crotch at a bar? Do we have the
alex41 [277]

Answer:

Social Assumptions

Explanation:

A woman who shows herself at the bar is sometimes perceived differently than a man that does the same thing. The interpretation of what it means as a man and a woman to perform the same behaviour in society is overwhelmingly different. Unfortunately, gender bias and gender roles separate male and female allowances.

So, a woman and a man doing the same thing at a bar is perceived differently.

The perception of a man and woman dressed  similarly is viewed differently

These are not examples of exhibitionism but the individuals are dressed the way they want and feel comfortable.

Gender bias exists because this behaviour has been introduced and been allowed to perpetuate in society for generations upon generations.

This is continued because society allows it to continue by perpetuating this "norm".

Since women are held at a different standard than men, a man's sexual promiscuity is not viewed the same as a woman's sexual freedom.

Women are most likely to be stigmatized in these cases, unfortunately and in time this may change.
