Double Standard for Women of the Odyssey Odysseus plans to tiptoe back into his hall through various schemes, one of which is to become beneficial and amiable to the maidservants.

Double Standards in The Taming of the Shrew A very prominent theme in Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew is society's double standards of men and women.

Canadian Standard of Living Since the day Canada was created the standards of living have been constantly changing. There have been ups and downs in Canadian Standard of Living, but in my opinion, the system we have today is nearly perfect.
