Yes, -homosexual men can't donor blood in germany -women can't get sterilization under their 40s without kids in germany -abortion is not allowed in some western countries -corruption within sexwork industry in Europe Many foreign women get manipulated/lied/deceived and they end up being sex-workers in germany and if they go back to their home country they will end up bein homeless, or starved or porn directors aproach minors and wait for them till they become 18 and they also approach young, naive, depressive women with mental issues since they are more likely to do this for example. - low age of consent in Europe which make 30 something men get 14-16 years old girls -violence in labour ward by nurses/doctors to the point 30% of women in a city in austria (my country) want to give birth at home for example -Anal rape is legal in switzerland -america has many states where child marriage is legal but the child can't divorce his/her spouse - marriage laws that discriminate men in america/in some european countries -courts are biased against men when it comes to divorce in america -high suicide among men in western countries and high suicide attempts by women and higher rate of mental issues among women. The topic about mental issues of women are also used by conservative people to push their agenda and women's mental issues are not taken serious by many guys on GaG (eg.) People literally make fun of western women for having mental issues and these women are seen as crazy modern women aka leftovers - i am not going to mention the situation of women in middleeastern/Asian since it is obvious -men are forced to join armed forces in many countries -circumcision of babyboys in many countries although i am not sure about this since people do it because of religion and i dont want to hurt anyone's religious feelings and many men told me they dont have a problem with it -abortion clinics get attacked and abortion get strictly restricted in america. for example you only can abort in the first month and it is difficult to realize that you are pregnant in the first month
Some guys's replies also scared me. Their only problem is not cat-calling and not harrassing women and complain how they can't do that. Would you like it when gay men cat-call/harrass you out nowhere when you are busy on the streets (in the night). When people are busy, then they dont want to approached. Common sense. Is it that difficult for you to approach women in libraries, parks, clubs, bars instead of harrassing. It has nothing to do with your looks. You can look up foreign women gettig harrassed by handsome japanese men on youtube. These women literally cried.
I was called many times racist when I critizised religious practices. Since then i try to be careful and to not offend anyone. I dont want to deal with anyone anymore. I am tired. Thank you for your replies
Sadly we like to pretend that it has gotten better but the actuality of it is that , gender inequality is still a major challenge on local, national and global levels. Not only does it affect the lives of individual men and women, but the inequality between genders also stunts economic growth and hinders development It also has a significant impact on mental and physical health worldwide. It can limit peoples access to healthcare, increase rates of ill health, and lower life expectancy. While it is true that women live longer than men on average, they experience higher rates of ill health during their lifetimes.
Of course, biggest difference you'll see is who is at a disadvantage depending on what part of the world you're in though. Also some things that appear to be an advantage short term are disadvantageous long term.
Women have more power than men in the west, especially young women who are attractive. It does create a situation where those young women have more opportunities to make more money when they are younger than men do, but have no earning power when their looks are gone.
Men don't have that option, so even in a shit career, sticking with it, our earning power increases as we age, even if the goal is appealing to men or women through looks. There are many male models who have a career at 40, 50, or even later if you look at Fabio as an example. That option does not exist for women, though it appears as an advantage when young that will cripple you if it's depended on as you grow older.

If the genders are only male and female, then the answer is yes. Now if you're trying to include homosexuals, lesbians, trannys, etc then yes there will be discrimination. How are you going to try to switch up what was once known as only Male and Female. There is no in between.
Things have just gotten infinitely more confusing.
For example. Women complain about being catcalled and approached/harassed by undesirable men. Decent men listen to this and are more conscientious about their behavior. But single decent men are paradoxically being told that they need to be âassertive, confident and dominateâ in dating.
So we see an attractive woman in public and we want to approach her (as we are used expected to). But we are nervous about looking âcreepyâ. So either we donât approach or if we do we act real weak sauce and too nice.
The reality all comes down to if the woman finds us attractive or not. This is imposible for the vast majority of guys to know off the bat. It would be nice if more women can just understand the position men are in with this. We are not mind readers.
I think there has been some blowback on metoo in last year or two. But still the damage was done with asinine âmovementâ. Just like most liberal movements it starts off genuine and quickly devolved into insanity (Kavanaugh hearings)
What these feminists donât realize is scumbags will keep on being scumbags no matter how much they march, complain and bitch. Only empathetic men listen to their grievances and those werenât usually doing much wrong to begin with. All that crap ultimately did was is instill unnecessary paranoia and maybe took out a handful of scumbags (Weinstein who had it coming anyway)
It exists but is much less prevalent as I remember 50+ years ago when women were still expected to remain at home as the doting housewife and men were expected to assume 100% of financial and other responsibilities. Back then men were expected to take care of their women and women were expected to obey their husbands. But I saw the cracks in that system as a child when I noted that both my mother and her mother were the heads of their respective households regardless of the fact that their husbands earned all the money (my mother ended up going to work eventually).
It is most definitely still a thing. Just ask any woman who has tried to get her tubes tied. Look at Muslim women. They are hudgly discriminated against for wearing a scarf. People still point to what rape victims were wearing despite it being scientifically proven that it has little to no effect. In the medicine women are more likely to be ignored when complaining about pain. Women were, and often still are, excluded from medical studies. Meaning a large portion of doctors don't know how to treat women. And this is not even getting into the social discrimination of women being shamed for sexuality or standing up for themselves. Also being ignored in academic settings... I could go on.
yes, we do currently have a strong discrimination against men and in favor of women. and this discrimination harms both men and women as well as the entire society in the long term.
but that's just my unpopular opinion as a social scientist... people tend to not wanna hear about logic, reason and facts, if they don't make them feel warm and fuzzy inside.
It is still persistent. Discrimination is part of being human and animal, so we can tell and identify differences from others. Children are honest in that aspect, they can openly express it, and not only related with gender.
We could turn every human a neutral gender or take out all the genders and turn everyone into one simple gender, but humans will always find a way to make discriminations.
It´s still there, for example in the medicine business. If you do research on a illness that´s most likely to infect more males than females than it´s more likely to get funded than an illness that´s just infecting females. On the other hand if you look for a female that´s good at cooking you´re a sexist, if a female rejects a guy because he´s not good at handling mechanical problems, it´s not a big deal. (Happened to me and friends of mine)
Of course it persists, in all directions. Problem is incels and edgelords scum keep blabbing on and on about the micro-social advantages of women, whereas feminazi filth and such self-victimizing sjw wastes of oxygen keep bitching about rape culture and wage gaps. Now you see, neither side is plain "wrong", yet neither does anything remotely useful to their respective "causes". Both sides need to recognize their advantages and the other side's hardships, and strive towards a more constructive cooperation. And if anyone feels I've raped them with this comment, or that I'm a "cuck" for treating women with respect, well then fuck your parents for creating such garbage and go kill yourself to rid us of your stupidity :)
As an American woman, I can't think of anything we have a disadvantage against men in (besides physical related stuff like sports obviously). The only real challenge for women is abortion laws that some politicians are restricting and that is super shitty, but men don't really have any rights in that area either. This is just an American perspective though, the middle east and other areas are different of course.
Legally speaking in the US, it's almost completely gone with one of the only notable exceptions being how for example women are currently exempt from the selective service system. Beyond that, it's going to come down to cultural values more than anything else; individual thoughts and opinions developed through their own experiences that no amount of campaigning will ever eradicate.
UK here. It's still hard for guy to get a job in a women's clothes shop. That's about the extent of it though. Hell we had a woman PM a couple of years back. The fact that she was totally useless shouldn't reflect badly on women as a species, the guy we have now is even worse.
Depends where you live in the world/ which country, itâs astounding how people generalise their country and the way they treat people to be indicative of what life is like for everyone in that country all around the world.
I think itâs persistent but in a different way. Example would be respecting pronouns, discussion of transgender rights, gender salary/pay gaps, etc. In other words the discrimination is very much still there but the talk is different.
If anything, I have reasons to feel generally discriminated as a man: Divorce law injustices, the basic assumption that I'm a potential rapist or child molester, etc. But then: this modern woke shit is nothing I personally take for serious. It's: present day's ''entertainment''.
If anyone ever tells you women where discriminated against. Remember women have always been a protected species in the west. And I never heard of any men calling out kill all women. But I have heard modern feminist say it. Who gave women rights? Men. Who gave the the vote? Men.
1. If we live in a world were men decide who gets rights and when I think it's safe to call that a patriarchy 2. I don't think you know what a figure of speech is
It does a cousin of mine was put in charge of hiring (not saying where) and he was advised to hire men over women as the employer had concerns about pregnancy leave and I kinda get where they were coming from
It does still persistent, especially when we are talking about "pretty" girls, they either get a ton of free praise, moral support and benefits in general or they are getting trashed by random people literally for nothing
Discrimination for what exactly? Have you bought into the feminist claim that all peoples are the same and equal? Cuz they're not, never have been and never will be.
@MudRucker - exactly. Men and women are simply not the same. Neither one needs to whine about discrimination. PERIOD Asker has not been clear about who is being discriminated against for what.
I see a lot of it. Female only candidates can realy piss me off. Positive discrimination doesn't exist. Discrimination is always negative. Psychopatic feminists getting their way is horrible for mankind...
