DOUBLE STANDARDS

Rule of law is there in books to treat all people as equal citizens,

They're principles in theory; discrimination's prevalent in practice!

One person or group is treated giving more latitude than another,

No law could change this practice unless you change your minds?

Sons and daughters are inadvertently discriminated at our homes,

Brothers and sisters are differently treated in families and society 

Every society is divided by colour, race, religion, rich and power!

Peoples are yet to adopt a 'gold standard' for fairness and equality?

Gender and disability, education and ignorance, jobs and wages,

Growth, education, progress and future affected in all walks of life!

Sex discrimination is common in schools, work places and offices,

Whenever this sort of problem crops up, we must be ready to fight?

Plan and eliminate this 'double standard' from your life and society,

Firmly oppose discrimination face to face if you see this at work?

Correct people politely; remain civil and calm; talk to them friendly,

Many struggles are going on for civil liberties and social justice!!

ERADICATE 'DOUBLE STANDARD' FROM OUR LIFE AND SOCIETY
