I think that the blindness to double standards is at least in part due to human nature. For one thing, it's the nature of men to protect, help and cherish women, and the nature of women to be more fearful about potential danger than men are. Since women care for children, men would have a tendency to take seriously any fears or complaints from women.

With male and female nature as a foundation, feminism has been able to twist many institutions in our societies in the directions they prefer. Sadly, if they get full hegemony, our societies will rapidly become less comfortable for women than they were in the demonized 1950s (and before).
