Why are the women stuck with the stereotypical labels, when men are just as guilty of the same behavior?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46815points) January 8th, 2012

“Drama Queen,” accused of “bitching all the time,” “Airhead” “Ditz” “Women don’t know how to manage money” (When I bet a million dollars most of the women in a relationship control the budget)...men can be as bad, or worse in all these areas. Why do the women get stuck with the labels? Why aren’t some men called “Drama Kings”? Why don’t we accuse them of “bitching” when they’re upset (actually, I do accuse my husband of that, and it really makes him mad! :)
Where did those stereotypes of women come from, and why?
