I already know that the US is anti-male, but I don't see why we have NO type of legal protection.

Women have more protection than us (somewhat understandable to a degree)

Domestic animals have more protection than us

WILDLIFE has more protection than us

even property has more protection than us!

So why is that?

[ahanu]

You mean white males

[sayre]

It is our fault entirely. We are not careful in choosing who we send to Washington, and then we fail to hold them accountable for the legislation they introduce or support by voting differently in the next election (as well as letting them know of our dissatisfaction as a constituent).

It is sad that if you are a white heterosexual male between 18 and 64, there is no way someone can discrimnate against you; you are not a "protected class."

Your OPINIONS are based on ignorance of the law.

There is no language in any law that excludes men from the protections of that law. Violence, sexual assault, pay discrimination , etc, etc, etc ALL are gender neutral laws.

"Domestic animals have more protection than us
WILDLIFE has more protection than us
even property has more protection than us!"

Really? Got any evidence of this?

And in what ways are men not protected by the law? Child support? Nope. They are for the benefit of the CHILD, not the mother. Rape? Men can file police reports of women raping them, and if they have evidence, the woman can be prosecuted. Or what other ways are laws more beneficial to women than men?

And if you have an issue with it, talk to the MEN that make these laws. Throughout history, lawmakers have been predominately men. So it's really men that created laws that are (in your words) "anti-male".


*EDIT* - by "reproductive rights", I'm assuming you are talking about a woman's right to do with her body as she sees fit. How does a man not get to do the same thing? If a man wants to get a vasectomy, he can legally get a vasectomy. How is that not exercising a man's "reproductive rights"?

And don't even comment on a woman getting to decide if she carries a child full term of has an abortion. It DOES come down to keeping it in your pant or not.

Nah you're wrong. Name one protection that women have that men don't have. Oh, that's right, you can't name one because there isn't one.

[ailwyn]

Give me one SINGLE example where a woman is given rights in LAW that a man does not have? Or an animal, for that matter?

The truth is, you have no idea what you are talking about.
