Here are some examples
Its all about a mothers rights, but no fathers rights. The new family unit is now defined as a mother and her children.
Women being treat like princesses in prison and men being treat like animals. Female prison guards humiliate and degrade men, but female prisoners get privacy and respect from male prison guards.
Bodily choice for women, but forced genital mutilation for baby boys, referring to womens rights to their bodies in terms of abortion, but boys being circumcised without choice.
Female reporters allowed in men’s locker rooms, but privacy and respect for female athletes. Very strange definition of equality that feminsim was very vocal about as being equal rights. Is this an example of the respect that feminists claim MEN dont have for WOMEN?
Its women getting everything in a divorce, and men being torn away from their children
Female sex offenders being slapped on the wrist, but male sex offenders being incarcerated the rest of their lives
Its men being sentenced to more time for the same crime than women. This can be reserached under the US government and shows that women dont get held accountable to the level that men do.
Its a feminized education system that cripples natural behavior of boys, makes being male a crime in school, then girls claiming they are smarter.
Why is it when two people under the age of consent have sex, only the boy is charged with doing something wrong?

Its women labeling men as abusive when the US government has shown women cause more child abuse than men.
Its female rape being horrendous, but male rape being funny and made in to comedy movies. Male rape is a legally accepted part of the justice system, but only against men.
Its just about every TV show being allowed to humiliate and degrade men, but women complaining and calling it sexist if they were treated the same.
It’s more health care spending going towards women’s health than mens.Breast cancer receives 7 times the funding of prostate cancer. There are three departments of womens health in the US government, but none for men. However, men live an average of 5 years less than women when the genders used to have the same life span.
Its allowing women only clubs and banning men only clubs
It’s doing everything we can to help girls in math and science, but letting boys fall further behind in everything else.

Its feminists not being able to provide one example of legal discrimination against women today

The divorce and child custody laws are the obvious ones. However, men are supposed to be tough so they often do not report crimes that are usually committed against women. Two good examples of this are sexual assault and spousal abuse. It's very difficult for the police, courts and even juries to view men as victims unless they've got one foot in the grave.

MANY too many to name! But the main ones are probably anything to do with children (custody, child support, visiting privileges, etc) The worst one is when a woman aborts the baby when the father doesn't agree. That is heart-breaking...
I also don't agree with how men are treated in the media (magazines, tv, ads, movies, etc). I find it degrading and disrespectful, and quite frankly I find it very offensive! It is very sad....
Source(s): Oh yeah, and the fact that men are constantly blamed for ALL the problems in the world... - How do you think about the answers? You can sign in to vote the answer.

How about the way they are portrayed in a lot of tv shows?
Yes, Dear
Everybody Loves Raymond
Malcolm in the Middle
Roseanne
Hen-pecked, wimpy, opinion-less... I hate seeing them that way. Comedies, I know. But way too many of them. It's not funny any more.

I honestly can't think of very many unless these men are minorities and get treated unfairly in reguards to that. But yes they do get unfair treatment when it comes to child custody which I think is soooo messed up. And they get harsher punishments for the same crimes than a woman would.
