The "Madonna double-standard"

Article here. Excerpt:

'Imagine if YOU were a high profile celebrity involved in a custody battle over your 15-year-old son?

Court proceedings are on-going, emotions are high, lawyers are engaged in furious exchanges and the world's media is salivating over every spit, cough and titillating claim.

The boy himself is confused, upset and incredibly embarrassed over all his family's dirty linen being washed in public.

What would YOU do in that situation?

I'd hazard a guess that pretty much bottom of your list of sensible responses would be to drag a 17-year-old girl up on stage in front of thousands of people and deliberately expose her breast, right?

Or to declare to the crowd that she was 'the kind of girl you just want to slap on the a**e'.
...
Now imagine if you were a male celebrity in that position?

What do you think would happen to you?

First, there would be universal revulsion.

Second, there would be global media fury.

Third, you would almost certainly face arrest for lewd conduct and/or sexual abuse.'

Sick.
There was also a recent article involving Madonna where some concert goers accuse her of being drunk on stage and giving an impaired performance. Instead of ignoring or denying the claim, Madonna goes off on a rage about how the complaints are sexist and evident of misogyny.
