This is a question Hypocrisy

Overheard the other day: "I've told you before - stop swearing in front of the kids, for fuck's sake." Your tales of double standards please.

Kiiiind of hipocrasy
OK, I am clutching at straws.

In school, sixth form, the dress code changed. The guys were meant to wear a suit, and the girls 'smart casual'.
Personally, I hate a suit, and slowly started de-smarting.
I would change the trousers for jeans, then a week or so later, lose the jacket, then start wearing a t-shirt under the shirt, unbuttoning the shirt, losing that, and within a month, I was in t-shirt and jeans, and none of the teachers had said a thing.

Then, out of nowhere, there was uproar. I hadn't really been paying attention, but the girls had done the same as me. Their smart casual had been becoming more and more casual, and the boys didn't like it. They started a petition. The teachers said they would gladly come to an arrangement.
"Great" I thought. "Soon we will all be comfy in jeans and t-shirts."

But no. The boys all signed the petition that WE ALL HAD TO WEAR SUITS, or would get in serious trouble.
Thanks a lot guys. I spent two years being bloody uncomfortable wrapped in a Primark nightmare.

And to think...
...that these weirdos will be petitioning the government for the same thing in years to come - or running it.

Or working for the Maily Dail.

And it would be hypocrisy if they started wearing casual or complained about wearing suits.
