The Craig case has made me think about how every time a woman that has intimate relationships with men has an affair or a relationship with a woman she is quickly labeled bisexual, and her bisexuality tends to be not only accepted, but kinda "glorified" (from porn to Hollywood)- but when it comes to men that are married with females or are known to have relationships with men are quickly labeled as "gays" when they have a homosexual affair and socially attacked instead of respecting their bisexual orientiation (which is probably what they truly are).

Why the double standard?
