Today, I am talking all about double standards. Starting off with why Brendon Urie can say "whore" and it's fine, but Hayley Williams says it and she's slut shaming. I talk about double standards in every genre, Sam Smith coming out as non binary, and Alice Glass on leaving her abusive relationship with her bandmate in Crystal Castles.
