I'm not sure what men you're talking about here, but this doesn't describe any guy I know - none of the men (or women) I know would hold a different set of standards or expectations for men and for women. Although I'm aware that could be because they're not a 'typical' group, I think we need to be careful about extrapolating from our own immediate knowledge to the population in general - before I attribute any perspective with any sort of 'universality', I'd want to see some research that demonstrated that any one of those perspectives were held by a representative sample of men/women.
I am not sure either sample is based in research. I know lots (most) people who seek to hold the same standards for men and women. Most of us say we do because that is what is expected and many of us genuinely strive for that equality of expectations. But that is often different from reality when it comes right down to it.
My perception (and yes it is just that) is that men are judged more negatively as men for being with a women who fuck others guys. No doubt in the reverse situation women encounter their own judgment which they may see as more negative - fair enough. But it is not logical in our world to assume their are no differences until proven otherwise. Men and women, if for no other reason than society's pressure, live different experiences. That is the logical starting point. Maybe it isn't as different as it was 50 years ago but it still is - for that not to be the case is a laudable ideal not a provable fact.
