No, the protected classes are things like "gender" and "race". It's baffling how many people seem to think that discrimination protection carve out exemptions that permit discrimination against men.
- mrguyorama 5y agoIndeed, just because some stupid zoomer on twitter said all men must die or something equally stupid; 1) does not mean men are discriminated against and 2) does not stop the law from protecting a man from discrimination for being a man. Sure, shit like that is really hard to prove, but so is it for a woman looking to be in a male dominated field. Add that to how often discrimination is subconscious or accidental or otherwise not a purposeful, organized effort to harm a specific group of people and you run into the situation where we struggle to prevent it.
