What does the idiom “What’s Good for the Goose Is Good for the Gander” mean?
Definition:
Women and men should be treated equally in the matter under discussion.
For example:
“I was worried about how Cynthia would react when her boyfriend took another woman to the movies. But I just saw her with another guy. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.”
Notes:
A variant is “what’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.”
