Silly Double Standards

Tweet

Have you ever known anyone that just entertained some of the most insane double standards? Something is bad for others but okay for them? Recently a friend of mine was coming down to visit me for my birthday. The guy I was dating at the time wanted to hook her up with one of his friends and wanted to know what she looked like. I gave a vague description (I was busy planning my party lol) and he asked if she was black. I said no and asked why he asked and he told me that his friend "didn't date black women". I blinked and privatly wondered if his friend would have an issue with us dating since he was white but I didn't say a word. A week or so later he brought it up again (his friend meeting mine)and I told him that I didn't think it would work because when I mentioned the whole hook up thing to her (minus what he said about his friends preference) she told me she prefered to not date white guys. I then went to him and told him she wasn't interested. He asked 'why' and I told him and when I told him you would think that she was the devil and I was her shepperd because he went OFF on me about how didn't like racist people blah blah blah.. Now usually I would respect what he had to say and not even be talking about this now but I was BAFFLED because he obviously thought nothing was wrong with his frind not wanting to date someone based on their race BUT he had a problem with someone not wanting to date HIS friend because of HIS race. What the heck?
