Frankenstein: Double Standards

"Am I to be thought the only criminal, when all humankind sinned against me? " pg. 210

This passage really hit me because of the truth that it tells about human nature. There are so many double standards in life, but the moment that an outsider makes a mistake or causes a problem, the whole world is against him. This passage also reminds me of a scene in The Kite Runner where Amir's wife is upset because people won't forget the mistake she made as a teenager when she ran away with a boy. She says that if men make mistakes or make their girlfriends pregnant, then they are just being young men, but the moment a woman makes a mistake, she is shunned. Now, Soraya didn't make a mistake and kill a little boy like the creation did, but she made an egregious error according the community and she was shunned for it. The creation did kill the boy and I am having a hard time actually deciding whether he wanted to or whether it was a mistake, but the truth still holds the same. Frankenstein could not forgive or even bear to look at the monster, but he didn't stand up to save Justine which is on his hands. So, all the monster wanted was to be accepted and now he is seen as the most abhorred of criminals while others as pardoned.
