The British political party Justice for Men & Boys (and the women who love them) outlined in its last general election manifesto 20 areas where the human rights of men and boys (and sometimes girls) are assaulted by the actions and inactions of the state, almost always to privilege women and girls. Girls, including unborn girls, are – in common with boys – affected by the issues in bold text:
- Abortion
- Foetal Alcohol Effects/Syndrome
- Male Genital Mutilation
- Fatherlessness
- Educational Failure
- Workplace Disenfranchisement
- Reproductive Rights
- Parental Alienation
- Domestic Violence
- Sexual Abuse
- Armed Forces Veterans’ Health Issues
- Homelessness
- Suicide
- Criminal Justice Discrimination
- Paternity Fraud
- Anonymity for Suspected Sexual Offenders
- False Allegations
- Healthcare Discrimination
- Lack of Political Representation
- Family Court Bias/Corruption
Today we would add at least four more:
- Workplace discrimination
- Conscription
- Brain injury from compulsory contact sports
- Denial of speaking platforms
